Take a Look at the Bad Guy
You already know Stan. You've played against him. Stan is "the meathead" and he doesn't care. If watching the backs of your teammates is being a meathead, then fire up the barbeque because you're getting burned.
Stan owns and operates Vanderberg Insurance Brokers. Off the ice, Stan is very personable and business savvy. But, on the ice, he truly is the meathead. Two seasons ago, he went after a ref and the only reason he wasn’t kicked out of the league forever is because he hired a good lawyer (and gave the ref a great rate on his home and auto insurance).
Nobody on the team really likes Stan. They’d just as soon he went away. But, they’re all so damn scared of him, nobody will say anything. Rollie has thought about kicking Stan off the team. But, Stan has one of the largest gun collections Rollie has ever seen. Good thing Stan doesn’t work for the post office.
