a tale of two Brothers // We gonna fight, for our right...

[Daniel Janser 2,112]

Swiss Central Gazzette

 

As the more regular readers of our newspaper know, Daniel has bought a house in Calgary, near the Elbow River, in walking distance to the Saddledome.

 

Despite being not fully installed yet, he invited his brother, who was in the States anyway (on the Lake Chicamacomico to be precise) and his new team mates from the Wranglers organisation for a Housewarming party at his new abode. He did not miss to invite the brass as well, as the Wranglers pride themselves that the Management does care about their players and mingle with them outside of the professional level as well.

 

Not surprisingly everyone answered the call of duty and there was no shortage of Welcome Gifts for the young Swiss. He took it upon himself to prepare a Swiss grill speciality called 'Cervelat' on the grill. For the less adventurous Wranglers there was Steak, corn cobs, Spare Ribs and Pulled Pork. For the Pescetarian amongst the squad (or for those who felt more like fish) there was salmon and thuna to be had. Grilled cheese and bell peppers rounded the BBQ side of dishes. Marcel prepared 'Älplermaggronen', a Swiss take on Mac'n'Cheese, which the Poutine loving Canadians declared as 'passable'.

Recently elected Captain Phil had an armwrestling contest with Jokinen which the latter won this time around. Marcel's beer pong mastery made Frank weep (we were assured only alcohol free beer was harmed in the process of this game). Klamasteris showed a keen interest in the plants in Daniel's backyard, especially the hedges. GM Ricer and AGM Greg_Di played volleyball against veteran defenceman Eagles and newly acquired defender-turned-wing Reinhart. Veteran presence and alternate Captain Perry splashed with his kids in the pool where they were promptly joined by the Nordic fraction in sophomore player Kotkakoivu and top scorer Nasherov. Later on, the three of them joined back up netminder Vaughn for a game of poker.

 

The more observant players noted a silent guy, drinking in every moment and when they asked Daniel who this mysterious guest was, he replied: 'This is Jean-Luc Lieuxperroux, a correspondent for my home town newspaper. This offseason, he was driving across Canada just to have a chat with me, so I thought I might as well invite him to the house warming. No worries, he promised that the more savoury events in the Casa Janser will stay in the Casa Janser  and will not make it into the paper.'

 

Needless to say, everyone enjoyed themselves and the party lasted until the early morning hours, when some neighbours, in true Canadian fashion, came over and apologized to be party crashers at 3 o'clock in the morning and whether it would be possible to tune it down a bit? Daniel took the hint and called it a night.

 

From a teambuilding point of view, the party was huge success. Daniel will certainly repeat that on the 1st August, when Swiss people celebrate their National Holiday.

 

Stay tuned for further updates on the brothers' career
