This happens from time to time: Someone famous gets interviewed as a Person on the Street and the interviewer has NO idea that it’s a famous person. It’s delightful.
This happened to someone from Penalty Box Radio in Nashville, as the NHL world gets ready for the 2023 draft on Wednesday night. The man on the street happened to be Kyle Davidson, the Chicago Blackhawks’ general manager, and he plays the moment perfectly.
He’s asked how much he knows about hockey and says “a 4” from 1 to 10. He’s asked to name as many hockey players as he can and starts to name members of the Stanley Cup-winning Hawks from a decade ago.
Then? He’s asked if the NHL rigged the draft for the Blackhawks.
“No. … I’m very confident.”
So we walked around downtown Nashville talking to hockey fans about the 2023 NHL Draft.
And then this happened. @NHLBlackhawks come get your GM! pic.twitter.com/zuZjGxhHdf
