Michele Strazzabosco is known far and wide for his unequaled work ethic, blistering slap-shot, bone shattering hits, and for his ability to skirt the time-space continuum and play for six teams in six different cities on the same night (according to Yahoo Sports)."The Strazz" as he is known is a defenseman for the Italian national team currently competing at the 2008 IIHF World Championship in Canada. A ten year veteran of the Italian league and a participant in the 2006 Olympics, The Strazz was given a shot at the NHL in 2006, a tryout with the Buffalo Sabres.
While Strazzabosco's play impressed the Sabres brass, they were concerned with press reports (Yahoo) of him also playing for Carolina, Boston, Toronto, New Jersey, and Minnesota...On the same night.
"I like what he brings to the table, but after reading these reports I have to wonder if he's giving the Sabres 100% let alone 110%." said Sabres GM Darcy Regier.
"The Strazz was a force of nature. One shift you'd receive a perfect breakout pass from him up the middle and the next he'd be scoring in a city 600 miles east." added former pre-season teammate Daniel Briere. "And that hair!"
Strazzabosco's philandering took him back to his native Italy where he continues to baffle physicists.
