Rick Letinsky and Marko Kapanen. Drama on (and off) the Ice.
Rick Letinsky and Marko Kapanen had sparred their entire careers and were no strangers to the rough stuff. But in game six of the 1983 Mid-western Hockey League finals, the rivalry turned ugly. They hacked, chopped and speared each other for sixty minutes. They fought three times - twice on the ice and once in the dressing room corridor. It wasn't until 12 years later, in Letinsky's book Blades of Steel, Fists of Fire that fans learned what really happened that night. The clash had nothing to do with hockey, and everything to do with a three-way phone conversation between Letinsky's uncle, Kapanen's sister, and Ansii Suhonen, enigmatic commissioner of teh Finnish Elite League.
Pen Club. Or, There Ain't No Party Like a Pen Club Party
So I've strong-armed my way into Pen Club - a gathering of Toronto illustration A-listers. The monthly meeting was founded by Steve Wilson, Aaron Leighton and Clayton Hanmer, among others. Pen Club is the perfect intersection of art and beer. It's a chance for those who draw to do so in public, instead of in their dank basements. Out of the dungeon, into the glaring, burning light of day, as they say. It's great to draw with these guys cus they're so damn talented. In fact, callling each other talented is a big part of pen club. We all take turns looking at each other's sketchbooks, saying things like: You, sir, are an effing genius.
