what's the deal with the whole Tessier thing? wheneve I go to the Devils I hear shouts about Tessier and golf and how he's treated clubs?
Can somebody shed any light on this for me? What did I miss?
Thanks in advance
Well don't know if this is how it started but: Tessier played for Nottingham and left mid season (I think) to go to Europe for more money. Then when he came back he signed for Sheffield, and Panthers v Steelers is the biggest rivalry in the world
so Panthers fans weren't happy.
And in the play-offs two years ago Panthers made it and Sheffield didn't, so the chants on the weekend were 'Where is Dan Tessier? He's playing golf today'.
Although kind of came back at the Panthers though when last year Sheffield won, Tessier had a golf bag and clubs out on the ice celebrating!
And of course this summer he left Sheffield and signed for the Panthers again.
