Keanu Reeves has done many things in his life. He's an actor, a stuntman, a bassist, and a goalie. Reeves played hockey as a kid and was in the OHL feeder system for a while. While on tour with his rock band, Reeves ended up in Windsor, where he met with the Windsor Spitfires who gave him a one day contract! Reeves and his band, Dogstar, will be in Hammond, Ohio tonight if anyone's in the area.
The newest member of the Windsor Spitfires, Keanu Reeves! 👏
