Q&A: Robitaille’s `professor’ moment

Question: This guy is going to kill me if I don’t ask this question. I’ll just read it to you. He says, “The old between periods feature `Ask a King,’ back in the late 80s, early 90s, which had fans writing in questions for Kings players to answer. Someone wrote in a question for Luc to the effect of “please explain the effect of the Versailles Treaty on pre- and post- war Europe. The video response had Luc in a professor’s garb with a pointer…

ROBITAILLE: “With Nick Nickson…”

Question: …answering the question (more or less straight-faced) while referring to a big board with a map of Europe on it. My question for Luc is: What are your memories of this? Is it in the archives somewhere?

ROBITAILLE: “(laughs) I clearly remember Nick Nickson coming in and doing that. They literally had to teach me what to say, because I had no clue what in the heck we were talking about, but I clearly remember Nick working with me on answering the whole question. It was great. That was (former TV producer) Bob Borgen’s planning at the time. That was a fun time. I saw that somewhere last year. Someone pulled out that clip.”

Question: You guys should put all those on the Web site or something…

ROBITAILLE: “We should. I can’t remember where I saw that, but I started to laugh.”
