This April Fool's Day I pulled off a prank on my GM. I know, I know, it must be a pretty original prank, but while having a conversation with him I started to realize that he did not know what day it was. He was talking about his stresses about other things he found out that day that I knew were not true at all, so I thought I'd plant another bomb in his brain. I requested a trade out of Calgary. I made up a bunch of stuff about how I did not feel favoured, and I felt like I was targeted by my teammates and coach on certain decisions on the ice, and he ate it all up. I said that I do not think that the Calgary Dragons appreciate me like another team would, and in fact, if I did not receive a huge raise by next season, I'm gone. I committed to being totally inactive in the practice facilities at the arena, among other things. My team flipped out, but my teammates were laughing as they definitely remembered it was April Fool's!

There was another thing though, and it was when I went to a teammate's place for dinner. I acted like I hated chicken parms!!
