He wasn’t an ankle bender. Politics no way! Dad was driver for Mayor Flynn at the time. His uncle was the coach at Don Bosco and took him as a freshman over Mike P. (CM/BU) Southie. Only family could justify that move. Those stats were padded more than his bs overtime earnings. How many hours of OT were spent at rinks through Massachusetts with his coaching buddy and former college roommate? That’s a different issue.
