Fun Fact: Eric Vanderberg of the Buffalo Stampede holds the stampede franchise Record for most chicken wings eaten in a single meal with 65. By wings were talking the big honking ones from Hooters, breaded chipotle honey. It will never be broken.

Fun fact about Ti-Guy Emond is he was the only player to get better after the Hamilton rule that forbid a difference of 20 TPE between passing and scoring. You see, Emond was a defensive d-man with no points spent on scoring.

Fun Fact: Through most of his hockey career, Danny Marston has used specially-bought safety orange-colored stick tape instead of white or black. It's a good luck routine that started in his Bantam days when his father, Greg, would put this particular type of tape on Danny's hockey stick and helmet. The tape and a number change (from #9 to #34) started as a way to more easily pick 10 year old Danny out of a crowd of kids who all seemed to have the same build, style, and looks. It became superstition when the team went on a four-game win streak.

Billy Brooks loves to play air hockey. He plays real hockey in his regular life for his job, but his favorite pastime in the rest of the time is playing air hockey. Its a bit ironic in a way, but its really intresting how that works sometimes.

I am the greatest 4th round pick that was traded for a bag of pucks. No one double check this but I have the most points for someone traded for barely anything.

My first player was inspired by my favorite hockey team having so many Finnish players. He owes his existence to my favorite hockey team's GM's desire to acquire Finnish greats.

Roy Razin was the first Captain of the Manhattan Rage to hoist the Cup. He scored the tying goal and was the primary assist on the winning goal of game 7.

Fun fact about Kappa Kappa. Originally, his parent wanted to name their child Kaapo Kakko based on their favourite NHL hockey player, but because they were in a ton of debt due to illegal gambling , they were forced to name their first child Kappa Kappa as a joke by the mafia group.

Bjorn Jakobsen is the first player in the FHM Era to be called up after only two seasons in the SMJHL and then also be traded mid way during that season.

Slap McShotty's teeth were the first teeth of all the teeth to be so teeth-like that they grew their own teeth. They are currently falling out and he is proudly waiting for his adult teeth to have adult teeth.

There is one fun fact about Darzins, as he is latvian, he is very shy and when he needs to comunicate with new people he always think a lot about it , what to say and stuff like that but when he needs to say it he forget all that he was thinking about.. Also Darzins is biggest clown in team, he is joking all time but teammates loves him.

Pasta the turtle is the first non-human athlete to finally stand up to the homo sapien hegemony of this league. His early activism in the J would lead to huge reform in the future, including, but not limited to:
-IIHF finally recognizing an all-animal team based out of Galapogos
-Specist mascots being banned (like the whalers)
-locker rooms being made accessible for all body shapes and sizes

Ursin Zimmermann has celliac diseas and there for has the habit to always eat the same before a game. Which currently is bread with butter and nutella. He won't change this because it works and he feels good during games

Makrus “The Tater” Jager currently holds the record for most practices missed due to wolf related injuries. He missed every practice in S59 but has not missed any in S60 due to better wolf management.
