Growing up, Zee Rechs wasn’t really big into Halloween because he hated dressing up, and he definitely hates scary movies. It’s pretty ironic that a big, burly dude who puts on a uniform hates dressing up in a costume and scary movies, right? That changed quite a bit when Zee was drafted by Yellowknife and moved up there. Besides getting used to the much colder temperature, Halloween is a big deal there, and especially to a team named the Wraiths! Zee felt a lot of pressure to get into the Halloween spirit and participate in all the Halloween festivities, so he gave in and found that he actually enjoyed it! Zee is a huge Star Wars fan, so most of his recent costumes have all been Star Wars characters of some kind. This year Zee is The Mandalorian, and he put a ton of time and effort into making his costume just right. His flamethrower turned out to be a little too realistic and regrettably had to get rid of it or risk setting someone on fire. Zee considered Chewbacca, but that’s just a tad too close to being a Furry for Zee’s taste. He is really looking forward to handing out candy to the kids (just don’t expect any Reese’s cause Zee already ate them all.) Scary movies are still definitely off the table, though!
