LAS VEGAS – Rob Riggle is not going to steal the show at the NHL Awards in Las Vegas.
The comedian/actor and host of the event mainly wants to be a delegator. He says it’s his job to “get up there and welcome everybody.”
And meeting the guy, he seems sincere. Channeling his inner Bruce Boudreau with a cone of chocolate Haagen-Dazs in one hand and motioning for emphasis with the other, he seems so un-celebrity like. Until you try to out-snark him with a question, and then you see his inner-entertainer come out.
Though he may not have a majorly overt connection to the NHL, he seems like a good choice.
