THIS AIN'T BALLET
Sent from the deepest reaches of the Great White North, Nashville Predator Jordin Tootoo became the first Inuit (some may know the Inuit by their old name, Eskimo) player in the NHL. I think this guy is going to be big. Why? As the article says, "...Tootoo did what he does best in the third period, drawing a penalty." Inuit heritage and penalty minutes? Sounds like a winning equation to me, as well as some of the Nashville fans, I would think.
The true comedy in the article, though, is the picture of his family in the stands. There's a picture of his cousin Tara along with his parents. I'll just say that the three of them standing side-by-side could do fairly well as a line in the NHL. All they needed were some gloves, helmets, sticks, and skates.
