Jen and I had to dig a little deeper for this week's featured player, but I think everyone will agree it was so worth it. Please let me introduce you to Andrew Ferrence of the Boston Bruins who will be coming to town on Tuesday. He just happens to be a St. Patricks' Day baby (insert lewd "luck of the Irish" joke here) and will turn 31 the day after he (hopefully) gets his butt kicked by the 'Canes. Ferrence has only put up 7 points from the blueline this season, but he has missed quite a few games with nagging injuries (including Tripp's favorite ailment). As you can tell Andrew has quite a few tattoos (13 to be exact), but he is more than just a pretty (half naked) face. He is very active in environmental issues and was instrumental is setting up the NHL's carbon-neutral program. This program allows over 500 players to purchase carbon credits to help offset the negative environmental impact of professional sports. He also spoke about environmental issues at Canada's New Democratic Party's federal convention this past summer. So enjoy this unique combination of brains and brawn ladies!
