Mark McGuckin

In British Columbia, the McGuckin name has long been synonymous with athletic ingenuity and cataclysmic road hockey play. As a young boy, Mark grew up idolizing the legacy of his forefathers and their long tradition of psychological warfare on the ‘asphalt jungle’ – affectionately known as the road hockey court. In his teens, Mark put his admired tradition into practice and got beaten badly … several times over. Now, having grown six inches taller and stacking on 40 plus pounds of raw twisted Canadian steel, Mark feels it’s payback time! He is also a Taurus and very, very single.


Calum MacLeod

Calum moved back to Winnipeg from Edinburgh, Scotland at the age of nine. Shortly thereafter he was introduced to the game of road hockey when he grabbed one of his neighbour’s broken sticks out of the garbage. Since then, Calum has been wreaking havoc in road hockey games from Winnipeg to Prince George and finally to Vancouver. It was here that his over-exuberant hitting, trash talking, and mucking gave him a reputation as a terror on the courts of UBC intramurals’ Tier Three ball hockey league. He also enjoys chocolate milk and curling…and is a HUGE Winnipeg Blue Bombers fan.
