Windsor Tomcats

Meet Sunny/Husky Eyes (A Tomcat with Two Nick Names):

Favourite Golfer – Phil Mickelson. Lefty is so talented but seems genuine and cool. He strikes me as the type of guy that could hang with the Tomcats.

Favoutite Golf Ball – pretty much anyone that I happen to hit straight! Definitely no Top Flite, Pinnacle or Noodles though! 

Favourite Hockey Player Growing Up – Darryl Sittler and Wendel Clark

Favourite Player Now – Auston Matthews. To be honest I love watching Connor McDavid play the game.

Favourite Movies – so many but I’ll go with Shawshank Redemption, Good Fellas and Pulp Fiction.

Favourite Bands – Ghost Crossing, Tragically Hip, Rolling Stones, Tom Petty.

Highlight in High School – had so many great times in high school.  I guess getting drunk with my brother, Lovie and the the boys in Petrolia and going to high school dances belting out Wanted Dead Or Alive in middle of the gym floor and trying to wheel some chicks!

If You Could Do One Thing For The Tomcats What Would You Do – I would love, as others have said to build a place for the Tomcats that is our own. Playing surface, large locker room, lounge area with bar and kitchen for parties, poker, meals, sleeping quarters in case one has too many bevvies, big screen T.V’s,  pool tables, ping pong tables, laundry machines and whatever else my be desired.

Favourite Tomcat – this is tough and virtually impossible! Soupy is my cousin, Lovie and La Bamba are like brothers to me so there is that. Stevo and I connected immediately as is the reason we have Tomcats! I can honestly say I love all the boys and everyone brings something unique to the group. It feels great when you walk in there and know the guys are genuinely happy to be there and glad to see everyone. Fortunate to know every one of the Tomcats and count them as a friend.

Favourite Tomcat Moment – winning a Stanley’s Cup in my first ever tourney, Razor singing Happy Birthday to Stevo, bringing some of my favourite people out to join this great group were all great moments. What stands out the most is the first time I was able to bring my boys Nathan (Solstice) and Griffin (Helios) to the Kapusta and share the floor with them. To be able show them what it means to be a part of something with good people that is competitive, fun and all about friendship was fantastic for me personally

Meet Snowpants:

Favourite professional golfer/or athlete: I’ve always been a fan of Tiger Woods. Although his golfing days may have ended, I wouldn’t be surprised to see his son follow his footsteps and carry the Woods legacy in golf. 

Favourite golf ball:  A white one that goes into the cup in the least amount of shots! 

Favourite hockey player growing up:  Wayne Gretzsky, who never played for the Habs!

Favourite Hockey player now: Connor McDavid, who is not even a Hab!

Favourite movie(s): Planes, Trains and Automobiles.  I can watch that movie a thousand times and still piss my pants laughing!

Favourite band(s): Sammy Hagar/Van Halen … who can’t drive 55?!

Your highlight in high school:  Winning 2nd place at O.F.S.S.A. cross-country.  So few Windsorites hold one of those medals.

If you could do one thing for the Windsor Tomcats what would you do?  Ditto on Bullwinkle’s response – replace that Kow Palace gym floor before someone slips and ends their hockey days playing.

Your favourite Tomcat:  All of them!  Obviously, there are some I connect more with than others, but in the end, we are a big family and I love all the brothers equally! 

Your Favourite Tomcat moment: Finally, winning Stanley’s Cup!  A close second would have to be the time when I re-enacted the video replay during a tournament by placing a towel over my head and pretending the play was being reviewed!  Priceless!
