Tony Felicella
|
| Perhaps the most exciting player in Tribe
history, Tony Felicella has risen through the ranks of floor and roller hockey and emerged
as a legitimate star for the team. Felicella shares most of the scoring burden with Shawn
Halford, and the two have formed a productive and entertaining partnership throughout the
years. Felicella is a lightning quick skater (having emerged from a terribly awkward
childhood) and smooth stickhandler with an eye for the net. He unfortunately has an
equally effective eye for the penalty box in which he is currently having his name
engraved. Number 91 isn’t a fighter but does not shy away from the rough stuff
either. He is an honours graduate from the Dino Ciccarelli School of Antagonism, enabling
him to draw about as many penalties as he himself is hit with. Antonio is a major player in the dressing room and has used his wit and charm to organize various fundraisers as well as corporate sponsorships the last few years. Now if he could just get it to work with the ladies... Famous Quotes: April 4th, 1997: "Whoo-hoo" [moments after scoring the first goal in Tribe ice hockey history] May 12th, 1998: "Well, I guess our loss is Rio De Janeiro’s gain" [on the impending departure of coach Nolan to the Rio Velvet Flamingos of the Brazilian Ice Hockey Federation] Later that season: "Well, I guess London’s LOSS is our GAIN" [on Nathan Nolan’s impending departure to the London Bobbies of the UK Ice Hockey Premiership] Several times this season: " OFF-SIDE??? $%^&&*&^$#$^^^$ you, ref!!! [seconds before receiving another ten minute misconduct penalty for "conduct unbecoming a gentleman"] Neat little fact about Tony: He orders his shoes from Shaquille O’Neill’s distributor, then has to stretch them a little bit. Another little known fact, Tony was once a skinny-four-eyed little weiner-boy that came out on the short end of several one-sided matches (as a member of the "Lourdes Losers") against Team Archangel (a mid-eighties predecessor of the modern day Tribe franchise). |
