A force of rage and fury on the ice, but a quiet, intellectual man out of the spotlight

Tyler is the kind of man other hockey players are afraid of. He's big, he's fast, and he'll drop his gloves in a heartbeat if you mess with one of his teammates. He's known as one of the toughest, most unyielding enforcers in the hockey league.

None of his teammates on the Colorado Yeti National Hockey League team or his fans would know that last year's Most Likely To Drop Gloves award winner would secretly spend his evenings enjoying opera and classical literature. Behind the temper and protective instincts is a hidden intellectual.
