In the beginning there was just a pebble...

 

Born following a local avalanche resulting in the creation of various rock formations; Brick Wahl was destined to rise from the rubble and claim his stature among the greats as his uncle did years prior. His early life as an above average sized child was spent at his fathers constriction sites assisting with brick laying and various brick related activities. Bricks academics were admired among his peers. Teachers often noticed how stone faced he was as he read through his text books and completed mathematics while showing his work. Quadratic equations and geometry came as easily to him as tying his skates. Brick's love for hockey was kismet. He spent most of his free time at the rink watching his uncle (also named Brick Wahl, sponsored by Advantage Energy Drinks) backstop the local professional club. Interestingly enough Brick started out as a defense man but was convinced to change to goalie by his uncle due to his size and lack of agile skating ability. Brick was placed (forced) into ballet classes by his Mother Ashlar Wahl and power skating by his father Dreylan Wahl (aka Dry Wahl as he was know in his community). A noticeable improvement was found in his agility and skating prowess although he was still considered average at best.

 

Early Career

 

In 2013, Brick was scouted by the Moose Jaw Bucks of the 'AAA' Minor Western Hockey League. Brick appeared in 11 games earning a record of 8-1-2 allowing just 19 pucks past his large frame. He spent just one more season with Moose Jaw before moving on to Swift Current of the NWHL. Although being considered a goon acquiring 29 penalty minutes from his crease, Wahl went on to a highly impressive 35 win season through 45 contests. Brick was seen by several psychologists over the course of the off-season leading to his university career at the University of Saskatchewan (Huskies). Being a husky guy himself, he was teased among his peers for fitting the bill as a Husky. During his years at University, Brick studied Geology in hopes of one day becoming a Geoscientist should his career in hockey not go as planned .Brick played 3 seasons with Saskatchewan before his eligibility with the VHLM.

 

Brick's Interests

 

The aforementioned Geology interests are evident through Brick's daily activities. Brick is an avid viewer of the Discovery Channel and views documentaries on rock formations and volcanic eruptions. Brick is a devoted collector of various gem stone classifications. His favourite vacation spot of none other than the mysterious historical site; Stonehenge. He has also been known to identify with the Fantastic 4 comic book series and idolizes "The Thing" for obvious yet ironic reasons.

 

A series of unfortunate shopping experiences

 

From goalie equipment to the shirt on his back; Brick has always endured an emotional journey in the malls of America and the respective world. In Japanese size, Brick is known as a "we don't make that, you must pay extra. Please come back, 3 weeks!". His latest visit to Tsuyu Clothing Co. ended in an unfortunate incident where he split 4 individual pairs of pantaloons. Brick has been seen wearing many sleeveless shirts and not because he is rough with the female populous. With his generous VHLM contract from the Las Vegas Aces, Brick can now special order clothing to fit his abnormally large build. His first purchase was previously discovered in a recent interview; a pair of 1997 Reebok Air Pump Runners. As you can imagine, Brick's feet take a toll day in and day out so walking on fresh Vegas air relives the feet'al stress. Brick's hockey equipment was specially crafted by the same athletic architect who designed Yao Ming's basketball jerseys and shorts. Vegas footed the bill for Brick's incredibly irregular order of hockey equipment and regretted offering Brick such a fair contract. Brick has Sertapedic™ on speed dial due to his recent order of a 7 and a half foot length bed. Shaquille O'Neil was Brick's referenced to the Sertapedic™ brand.

Bricks personal life

 

Brick was recently seen canoodling with his new lady friend. She is a local University Student (Fashion major) coming in at a staggering height of 5'2" Caylin Aqua. Brick was asked recently regarding the difference in height between him and his companion although the reported could not reach their microphone to Brick's mouth in order to get an audible response. The look sold it. We won't be questioning this further. Time will tell if Brick and Caylin will be featured on TLC's "Odd Couples".

 

Charity Work

 

Brick put his construction skills to the test in 2017 during a rebuild project at the local animal shelter. A new facility was constructed by the volunteers. Brick went above and beyond adopting a Boston Terrier appropriately named Jasper and a Chihuahua named Citrine. As an avid dog lover, Bricks walks his dogs on a daily basis, and although it is a site to behold, his neighbors are in love with his dedication to the little fluff balls. When his K9's are pooched, he will carry them in his sweater pockets better known as sleeping bags to normal folk.

 

Career expectations

 

Brick is a goalie with quite a high ceiling and hopefully he hits is as he does in his entrance way at home. Saying Brick will be a starter as his uncle was is an understatement. He is expected to start most games with the Vegas Aces this season in the VHLM and has hopes of one day being considered for the VHL. Should Brick have been available in this off-season's draft he may have been overlooked due to his recent addition to the pool of available talent. Vegas should count themselves lucky for landing a rare talent whose name should be etched in the concrete that the Aces arena stands upon. Brick has a promising career and it will be fun to watch as it unfolds.

Awesome work! Hopefully you can "stand tall" in goal for the Aces this year

So, 2 things, welcome to the league @BladeMaiden! I love the picture with Wahl and the Bed. I can relate. Happened a lot when I was younger. You're organization and layout is just beautiful and this is really good for a biography. Especially since it is your first time making one. Way better than mine. You can read mine if you want but you'll probably cringe. I love the mention of Tsuyu and the title just makes all the more funnier. So yeah. I hope I get to play with this wall.
