We had some ridiculously funny moments, such as the time I had to explain to Keenan that I needed to leave a game in Vancouver, in the third period, because I had soiled my drawers. Maybe I didn't need to tell him, because everyone on the bench could smell the problem.
Having felt ill all day, I went into the corner and got checked hard. At impact, my bowels did an unexpected evacuation. When I returned to the bench to sit down, my odor caught everyone's attention.
"Who shit themselves?" Blackhawks trainer Mike Gapski asked.
He was undoubtedly joking, not knowing that I had done exactly that. I was so uncomfortable that I had to inform Keenan I was leaving the bench with 15 minutes left in the third period. I missed 5 or 6 minutes of the game because I had to change my underwear. It was the most embarrassing moment I ever had in the game. Pardon the pun, but you can imagine the shit I took over that episode.
