And then there’s Ryan Getzlaf.
On Friday’s Pacific Division video conference call, the Anaheim Ducks captain showed off his most recent accomplishment — a chicken coop.
“I spent the last three days building a chicken coop in the backyard,” the 15-year NHL veteran said with a smile. “The wife wanted the other day and we had no eggs, so we borrowed eggs from a neighbor that had chickens and then all of a sudden we were having them. She just ordered six of them.”
The Kings’ Anze Kopitar then asked to see Getzlaf’s carpenter skills and later in the zoom chat he took a stroll back, on what appears to be an expansive property, and showed off his work.
Needless to say, everyone on the call, including Golden Knights netminder Marc-Andre Fleury, was pretty impressed with his craftsmanship:
However, the Rangers’ Artemiy Panarin may have some thoughts on who the best carpenter is in the NHL is.
