Naturally Chris Neil would be able to recite the lyrics to a 1980s tune that was written in tribute to "blue collar workers."
Entering Thursday's game against the Florida Panthers, the Senators' veteran tough guy needed seven penalty minutes -- or one more rambunctious shift - to become the 26th player in NHL history to reach the 2,400 plateau.
When it was pointed out to him that 2,400 minutes is the equivalent of 40 hours, Neil smiled and replied: "What's that old song? I worked a 40 hour week for a livin'?"
The country music band Alabama might be honoured he remembered.
