He could solve our goalie crisis if he wanted to. 😔⁣
⁣
At 7'9", Florida Gators freshman Olivier Rioux – the tallest player in college basketball history – is a Terrebonne, QC native. A tall French Canadian? Now that's the blueprint for an elite NHL goaltender. 🏒🏀⁣
⁣
With No. 1 Florida out of the men's March Madness, we're just throwing it out there... just something to think about... 👀⁣
