Spittin Chiclets and TJ Oshie.
Greatest interview ever.
>Oshie played football, basketball, and hockey through high school
>From lower class background (divorced parents, raised by mother on a dairy farm)
>Grew up fantasizing of being a pro basketball player
>Dad literally threw away every mailer they got from "Hockey Academies" and "Summer Camps" and private coaching lessons
>Had literally zero formal coaching
>Played high school hockey
>Finds travel hockey concept gross and repellent (good call, fren: That's where the Leaf pedos are)
>Couldn't fathom college-hopping due to ice time or NIL cash

The quintessential American hockey player.
Just a natural athlete who's like, "Shit, I'm better then all these tryhards. Guess I'll just do this."
Literally the complete opposite of everything we've heard about the unathletic "superstars".
Literally the complete opposite of Mitch Marner.
