Finn Jakobsen was beloved in the St. Louis locker room during his first two seasons in the SMJHL. The Norwegian forward was known for his feisty demeanor, but Finn was also a great teammate. He always had our backs. He was also funny, and a great example of this was when he roasted the hell out of Leafer Reilly. So when he went inactive, it sucked. It felt like a critical part of our locker room had departed. Well, I caught up with Finn, and he has a good reason for leaving us. As it turns out, his father was the Prime Minister of Norway, and he had to leave in order to tend for his dying father. Finn became a rising star in Norwegian politics, and was elected Prime Minister a couple of years ago. He promotes hockey across the country, and always makes sure to tell his cabinet ministers about the time he made Leafer Reilly look like a fool.

Glad to hear that Fin has turned a new 'leaf' as a respected member of the international community.. Jacobson/Reilly was a big part of the great brawl of S35 between STL and Kelowna!
