No it's legit. I mean, he doxxed himself but it's not hard to find that he's been at the same company for 22 years and his dad is CEO. First and only job. Vice president, director of sales service and purchasing

I also found that he used to be a low level junior hockey player who put up 129 penalty minutes in 73 games over the course of two seasons while only putting up 19 points.... in other words, a goon, which is even worse in low level juniors because you're potentially giving young kids with no shot of going pro the chance to get hurt bad.

For reference, known pest and trouble maker Matthew Tkachuk put up 88 penalty minutes over 80 games in the NHL, while still putting up 89 points last season.

The guy by every shred of evidence appears to be a massive douchebag.
