Knee High P.I.s

The team was founded by a man named Brother Hesekiah at age 21 in 1892. He studied Law at Harvard, but still managed to find time to create and play in The Montreal Knee High P.I.s. In all there were 5 teams: the Louisiana Butch Monkeys, the Nova Scotia Bank Robbers, the San Diego Farters and the New York Back Hairs.

He was a huge hockey buff who enjoyed a few rumbles on the ice himself even though he stood at 4'6" and weighed a mere 74 lbs, thus the name knee high. He led the league in scoring for the next 6 years accounting for 239 goals, 747 assists and a hefty 2581 PIMs in a 22 game league. He decided to step down as owner/player to concentrate on his schooling and take care of the law side of the business.

Unfortunately for Mr. Hesekiah, to everyone's disbelief he was arrested along with Omar Suarez' father in a 5 ton cocaine importation bust in 1932. The team was then sold to his younger brother Pipsqueek Hesekiah who continued his brother's legacy; not on the ice, but in the front office winning a total 26 Stanley Cups in a row. Pipsqueek died of natural causes in 1963 while taking a shit. Brother Hesekiah, died in 1947, eating a tuna sandwich in his prison cell. He was 5 weeks away from his 76th birthday.

The Bronfman family bought shares into the team and continued the winning tradition until recently selling it to the most dynamic, most handsome, intellectual, dedicated, inspiring, courageous and sophisticated man on the planet- Mr. Ernesto Rivas. One quote from Mr. Rivas which has everyone wanting to play for him

Leaders do not command excellence, they build excellence. Excellence is being all you can be within the bounds of doing what is right for your organization. To reach excellence you must first be a leader of character." With that saying he had the whole league wishing to play for him, even Mr Gary Bettman the chairman of the NHL, is still willing to relinquish his $9.5 million per year position to even be a janitor to my team.

The team was valued at $325 million before selling it to Mr. Rivas. Since taking over the team, it skyrocketed to a whopping $462 billion the very next day.
