ken kaniff Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I tried looking up what he's been doing recently but there's literally nothing on him. Did he just quite playing hockey after the 2011-2012 season? Anyone have any info or idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronalds.Kenins41 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 After 2010-2011 so many players magically went off this team. Oreo went into insurance work Tambellini went to the swiss league (was shocked with this one considering he had a spot on his hometown team and was respected among the fans, he was like a good luck charm we had like a decent record with him in the line-up) With the exception of Raymond,the rest went south of the border to different teams.

Master Mind Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 After 2010-2011 so many players magically went off this team.

To think we only have 9 players left from that team. Back then I certainly wouldn't have expected Hansen, Higgins, and Tanev to stay on the team longer than Kesler, AV, and both Lu and Schneider. As for Oreo, it's a shame when a player has the tools to be an NHLer and just doesn't have it in his heart. Hope he's enjoying his career in insurance.

etsen3 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 He's well educated and has a good job that probably pays a decent amount of cash and will set himself up well for the future. Maybe not as glamorous as the NHL but he's still doing better than most people and if he plays his cards right he could easily make more money than he would have as an AHL grinder. You guys make it sound like he's a street hooker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baer. Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Lee Sweatt did the same thing. He retired to become a financial advisor, being he would make more money than playing in the AHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterOriginality Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 He originally going to play on the 4th line for the 2011 - 2012 season. But when they claimed Dale Weise there was no room for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancaster Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Lee Sweatt did the same thing. He retired to become a financial advisor, being he would make more money than playing in the AHL. I think Lee Sweatt is doing those huge hedge fund, investment banking. Probably more money than many NHLers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Didn't he have some personal issues, and lost his passion for hockey? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totes McGoats Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Lee Sweatt did the same thing. He retired to become a financial advisor, being he would make more money than playing in the AHL. Its common for Hockey players to become financial advisors, mortgage brokers and real estate agents. For example Jesse Fibiger, or Andy Rogers ... Both work in real estate in Victoria BC.
