    Interview With Blake Daniels

    Tell us about yourself. What
    are you like?
    For a long time, I was
    driven and focused on my hockey career. After the tragedy four years ago in which
    I lost my entire family, I spent the next four years floundering like a ship lost
    at sea. My career went down the tank, and my personal life was even worse. Meeting
    Sarah this Christmas changed all of that. Now I have a direction and a future that’s
    bright. I’ll be opening a little bistro on one of the islands (San Juan Islands) because I love to cook.
    What do you think is your strongest
    point?
    I think my kindness
    to animals and others.
    Do you have a weakness? (If
    so, what do you think it is? What does your lover think it is? What does your enemy
    think it is?)
    I think my weakness
    is my tendency to close up when things get tough and keep everything inside. I’m
    pretty sure she’d agree with that, though she’s better at getting me to open up
    than anyone else I’ve ever met except my mother. The only enemies I’ve ever made
    were on the ice. They’d say I was a ruthless hockey player in my earlier days.
    What drives you to do the things
    you do? What makes you want to be the “good guy?”
    I was raised by a loving,
    caring family and parents who set a good example for me every day of their lives.
    I constantly strive to be the son who would make them proud.
    Forward Passes
    What’s your favorite guilty
    pleasure?
    A naked Sarah and warm
    chocolate fudge at the same time.
    If you didn’t know how old you
    were how old would you be?
    About sixteen when I’m
    with Sarah.
    A biography has been written
    about you. What do you think the title would be in six words or less?
    He overcame Tragedy
    to Love Again
    If money were not an object,
    where would you most like to live?
    Right where I am (Washington State’s
    San Juan Islands)
    What song would best describe
    your life?
    Garth Brooks’ “The Dance”
    If you were a tool, what would
    people use you to do?
    I’d be a hammer because
    I hope I’d be used to build things and make life better.
    Picture yourself as a store.
    Considering your personality and lifestyle, what type of products would be sold
    there?
    Definitely a grocery
    store, but one that sold hard-to-find items and fresh produce.
    As a child, what was your favorite
    thing about school?
    After the final bell
    rang and going to hockey practice.
    Tell us an embarrassing story
    that has to do with a pet. If you have no pets, a story about a significant other
    will do
    .
    My sister had a schnauzer
    that had it in for me. One time at family reunion, he peed on my jeans’ leg. I never
    noticed it but everyone else did. My brother managed to get it all on video.
    If you came with a warning label,
    what would it say?
    Beware, this man will
    seduce you with whispered promises and great food.

    Please Fill in the Blanks as Blake

    I love pizza with all meat.
    I’m always ready for dinner and sex.
    When I’m alone, I like to read or watch sports.
    You’d never be able to tell, but I’m actually
    pretty romantic.
    If I had a halo it
    would be surprising.
    If I could go back and win the Stanley Cup I’d be
    one happy man.
    I can never forget because they meant
    too much.
