Jon “Bates” Battaglia reunited with Chairman Mo, film at 11.

Well how’s this for irony? Back during Batesy’s last season and a half with the ‘Canes, he was convinced that the Great Helmsman was cutting his icetime out of some kind of personal dislike–the fact that he was sucking on toast (along with the rest of the team) never even occurred to him, and when people tried pointing it out to him he was in complete and total denial.

And how he’s back playing for Chairman Mo Teh Coach again. Good luck, Batesy. Hope you can get back up to the Show again, dude.
