Guerin, the Wild’s president of hockey operations, and assistant GM Chris Kelleher personally flew to New Jersey, where the Canucks had landed the night of the blockbuster, to pick Quinn up in owner Craig Leipold’s private plane. They sent an Escalade to brother Jack’s house to pick him up. They had Quinn’s favorite meal waiting on the plane and a table of his favorite food at the hotel waiting for him in his room.
How did they know his favorite food? Team services manager Dominic Hennig reached out to his compatriot with the Canucks. He got word from the Canucks’ team chef that Quinn loves chickpea pasta, ground chorizo sausage and premium olive oil and will sometimes mix in grass-fed Bolognese for his pregame pasta. He’s big on grass-fed and organic meats and vegetables, and prefers food that’s gluten-free with no corn products.
So, the Wild had chickpea noodle pasta and a Bolognese waiting in his hotel room, a charcuterie platter, a fresh fruit bowl and the scrumptious hummus appetizer from Mara, renowned chef Gavin Kaysen’s restaurant.
On his bed were both types of Wild No. 43 HUGHES home sweaters for him to gift his parents. The Wild made sure to rent him a brand new BMW SUV that was delivered to the hotel the next morning after arriving.
“Amazing,” Quinn said when asked about the way he has been treated. “I mean, starts with Billy, everything he did, and coming up, picking me up, obviously.
No offense, but anybody who says "This show is called [ SHOW NAME ] not [ CHARACTER NAME ]" to justify a character not being written well annoys me so much. Imo? That's barely a justification at all, because WHY is THAT character an exception while almost every other character has development?? Especially when they're supposed to be part of the MAIN cast?? 👀 Hello?? 👀 What are we saying rn??
HELL. BACKGROUND CHARACTERS EVEN HAVE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT?? AND THEY'RE NOT THE MAIN CHARACTER IN A TITLE NAME?? But no, he or she doesn't count I guess! 💀
Maddie!Bevan and Alex!Monty had a really unexpected Estranged Friends dynamic to me tonight. They felt much more like equals, as if they’d come up through the ranks at the same time and had been friends until Bevan grew slowly disillusioned with Monty. There was definitely a stronger familiarity between them than I’ve ever felt before
Huge midterm exam this week, I can’t write sneeze porn because of said exam, and Tr*mp is our president still. What kind of sick twisted world IS THIS.😐
