Steve From Stranger Things Was Born To Be A Hockey Player

Premiere Of Netflix's

At the moment of writing this blog, I still have 2 more episodes to watch in season 2 of Stranger Things. I figured instead of finishing the whole thing over the weekend, I’d leave myself a little treat to watch on Halloween. So if for some bizarre reason the big reveal in the final 2 episodes of the season is that Steve is a hockey player, well then I’m sorry. But for some reason I don’t think that’s the direction the series is heading.

It should be, though. Because just like everybody on the 1980 US Men’s Olympic hockey team, Steve Harrington was born to be a hockey player. It’s as clear as the sky is blue. That is one of the more remarkable heads of hair that the television industry has ever seen. It belongs on the ice at all times. Honestly this is the only thing that still has me hung up on Stranger Things. It’s the only thing the writers have gotten wrong so far. Even that one random episode with Eleven’s sister that seemed a little out of place, I saw the point in it. But to have a kid with a head of hair like Steve Harrington and NOT have him be a hockey bro? Talk about dropping the ball. Just look at it for pete’s sake.

Feathered and lethal. Tell me you’re not dying to see than mane in a 4500. And sorry for the spoiler, but it even comes out that Steve uses Farrah Fawcett spray to give it that extra volume. Anybody whose hair routine is this detailed

is a total beauty. The kind of guy who goes out there and puts up 5 point nights on the regular. The kind of guy who you always have as your closer in the shootout. The kind of guy who is going to toe drag the blueline, take the defenseman out for a walk around the circle, go top bunk on the goalie and then bottom bunk on your girlfriend after the game if ya know what I mean. The fact that this show is about aliens and different dimensions rather than being about Steve winning the Indiana State High School Hockey Tournament is mind bottling to say the least. Bet he’d still be wheeling around Nancy if he was a hockey player instead of getting bullied by Billy on the basketball court.
