Don't get me started. It was a little hard to emulate the Dryden look, chin perched atop the goal stick waiting at the other end for another chance to save the team, being about a foot shorter. Still, if ever there was a perfect hero for me as a young boy -- exceptional goalkeeper winning accolades in the NHL, lawyer (or at least working toward it), well-spoken smart guy -- Ken Dryden was it. I even insisted on wearing "29".
Now after being a businessman, writer, committee chairman, commentator, and sports star, he's headed for parliament (The Liberals are set in goal).
Always on my list of people I'd like to have over for dinner sometime, maybe . . . He'll be in Ottawa a lot, anyways . . .
