外向的個性、藍領比賽和團隊至上的態度只是這位30歲前鋒無論在哪裡踢球都能找到一個受歡迎的家的幾個原因。
Liam O’Brien is quickly becoming a fan favourite in Utah.
利亞姆·奧布萊恩很快就成為猶他州球迷的最愛。
The 30-year-old forward, who joined the team in June after four seasons with the Arizona Coyotes, introduced himself to thousands of fans at Delta Center in April.
這位 30 歲的前鋒在亞利桑那郊狼隊效力了四個賽季後於 6 月加入球隊,並於 4 月在三角洲中心向數千名球迷介紹了自己。
When it was his turn at the mic, he asked fans to refer to him as Spicy Tuna and then pumped up the enthusiastic crowd.
當輪到他在麥克風前時,他要求粉絲們稱他為“辣金槍魚”,然後為熱情的觀眾鼓掌。
“I cannot wait to get this place buzzing. Let’s go!” he roared.
「我迫不及待地想讓這個地方熱鬧起來。我們走吧!他咆哮道。
It was all the more impressive considering it was improvised.
考慮到它是即興創作的,更令人印象深刻。
“Usually, it is that ‘rah-rah’ atmosphere, so I was ready for that part of it,” O’Brien recalled. “But I didn’t know we were announcing ourselves. I had no plan as to what I was going to say. I just kind of went rogue and everyone seemed to like it.”
「通常,這是那種『rah-rah』的氣氛,所以我已經準備好迎接這一部分了,」奧布萊恩回憶道。 「但我不知道我們正在宣布自己。我沒有計劃要說什麼。我只是有點叛逆,每個人似乎都喜歡它。
The nickname is a play on another moniker, Big Tuna, bestowed on him a few years ago.
這個綽號是幾年前授予他的另一個綽號“大金槍魚”的變形。
It began with a reference between O’Brien and former teammate Nate Schmidt, now with the Florida Panthers, from the much-loved sitcom, “The Office.”
故事開頭是奧布萊恩和前隊友內特·施密特(現效力於佛羅裡達黑豹隊)之間的故事,來自廣受喜愛的情境喜劇《辦公室》。
“He began calling me that and everyone just jumped on board,” noted, O’Brien, who was named the recipient of the Coyotes’ Jukka Nieminen Memorial Trophy in 2021-22 as the team’s hardest working player. “Coaches, players, everyone – that’s what they called me.”
「他開始這樣稱呼我,每個人都加入了進來,」奧布萊恩說道,他在 2021-22 賽季被任命為郊狼隊最努力的球員,獲得了尤卡·涅米寧紀念獎杯。 “教練、球員、每個人——他們就是這麼稱呼我的。”
O’Brien has embraced it all.
奧布萊恩接受了這一切。
From his official Twitter handle, @OfficialBigTuna, to having tuna on his sticks, it’s become a big part of his identity.
從他的官方推特帳號@OfficialBigTuna,到他的棍子上掛著金槍魚,這已經成為他身份的重要組成部分。
It has also followed him to Utah.
它還跟隨他去了猶他州。
And not just at the rink.
不僅僅是在溜冰場。
Grocery stores, restaurants – the legend of Spicy Tuna is growing.
雜貨店、餐廳——辣鮪魚的傳奇正在不斷發展。
“If I am out, I hear things like, ‘That’s the Spicy Tuna guy!’ A lot of that stuff. You get recognized at the grocery store or restaurants.
「如果我出去,我會聽到這樣的話,『那是辣金槍魚傢伙!’很多這樣的東西。您在雜貨店或餐廳會被認出。
“It’s an ever-evolving thing. Guys call me different things all the time. It’s not up to me, you know? I’m good with any of it. I’m a laid-back guy, so I am good with whatever the guys want to call me – unless it’s ridiculous.
「這是一個不斷發展的事情。人們總是用不同的方式稱呼我。這不取決於我,你知道嗎?我對其中任何一個都很擅長。我是一個悠閒的人,所以我很樂意接受他們想怎麼稱呼我——除非它很荒謬。
“Jordan Schmaltz, who is Nick Schmaltz’s brother, he is the one who started it [Spicy Tuna] on Twitter, and the guys kind of ran with it. The guys saw it, liked it, and it kind of went from there.”
「喬丹·施馬爾茨 (Jordan Schmaltz) 是尼克·施馬爾茨 (Nick Schmaltz) 的兄弟,他是在 Twitter 上發起「辣金槍魚」計畫的人,大家都在追隨它。人們看到了它,喜歡它,然後就從那裡開始了。
What matters most to O’Brien, who played his 200th NHL career game last night in a 5-2 home-opener victory, is helping Utah make some noise in its inaugural NHL season.
對於奧布萊恩來說,最重要的是幫助猶他州在其 NHL 首個賽季中取得一些成績,他昨晚在主場以 5-2 的比分戰勝了他的 NHL 職業生涯第 200 場比賽。
Support for the team and its players continues to grow.
對球隊及其球員的支持持續成長。
“It’s cool and it’s cool to see how excited the city is for hockey. It’s been very welcoming. You can’t ask for anything more than that.
「這很酷,看到這座城市對曲棍球有多興奮真是太酷了。這是非常受歡迎的。除此之外你不能要求更多。
“Everyone is very, very excited. It’s pretty cool to see the amount of excitement and the fan support. There is a definite buzz.”
“每個人都非常非常興奮。看到這麼多的興奮和粉絲的支持真是太酷了。確實有一種嗡嗡聲。
One that extends to the players donning the Utah colours.
一項延伸到穿著猶他州隊服的球員。
“We feel good about the guys we have. We have taken strides in the last few seasons, and now we are ready to take bigger ones.”
「我們對我們擁有的球員感覺很好。我們在過去幾個賽季中取得了長足的進步,現在我們已經準備好邁出更大的一步。
His teammates are happy to have Spicy Tuna along to help achieve that goal.
他的隊友很高興有辣金槍魚一起幫助實現這一目標。
“Liam has done a great job. He brings it every day. He is always going to get the guys going, bring that spark – he is so consistent with his habits and how he prepares himself,” said fellow Utah forward, Alex Kerfoot.
「利亞姆做得很好。他每天都帶來它。他總是能讓隊友們前進,帶來火花——他的習慣和準備方式都非常一致,」猶他州前鋒亞歷克斯·科富特說。
“He has a tough job, but every day around the rink, he has a positive mindset, and he loves what he’s doing. His energy drives our group a lot of the time.”
「他的工作很艱苦,但每天在冰場周圍,他都有積極的心態,而且他熱愛自己所做的事情。他的能量很多時候都是我們團隊的動力。
Last season, the undrafted centre was a staple in the Arizona lineup and recorded 14 points in 75 games while leading the team with 229 hits.
上賽季,這位落選中鋒是亞利桑那隊的主力,在 75 場比賽中得到 14 分,並以 229 次安打領先全隊。
O’Brien, who signed a three-year contract with Utah in June, knows exactly what he needs to do to be effective each night.
奧布萊恩在六月與猶他爵士隊簽訂了一份為期三年的合同,他清楚地知道自己需要做什麼才能在每場比賽中保持高效。
“It is just doing a lot of the really good little things, paying attention to the details of the game. I am in the right spots, making the right plays, finishing my hits, creating turnovers, winning battles, and getting under the other team’s skin – that’s a good game for me.”
「它只是做了很多真正好的小事情,關注遊戲的細節。我處於正確的位置,打出正確的比賽,完成擊球,創造失誤,贏得戰鬥,並激怒對手——這對我來說是一場精彩的比賽。
No need to ask if the Halifax-born forward, who welcomed a daughter named Leilani with his wife Adela this June, is ready for the challenge.
無需問這位出生於哈利法克斯的前鋒是否已準備好迎接挑戰,他今年六月與妻子阿德拉 (Adela) 迎來了一個名叫萊拉尼 (Leilani) 的女兒。
“The guys are all in and we’re excited about this year.”
“大家都在,我們對今年感到興奮。”
A year in which the legend of Spicy Tuna will undoubtedly attract some new followers in Salt Lake City and beyond.
今年,辣金槍魚的傳奇無疑將在鹽湖城及其他地區吸引一些新的追隨者。
“I like it. I have had
「我喜歡它。我有過
