""I'm attending the Olympics here in Milan," Joshua said to RMNB. "I went to the Opening Ceremony and am going to other sports venues as well to watch the different events that my city has to offer. I immediately saw the Canadian Team of Hockey with their red jackets. My Swiss boyfriend who is a volunteer in the Olympic Village and a huge hockey fan was pretty amazed. I wasn't expecting this experience at all. It was surprising to see NHL players commuting, too.""
""The players were pretty actually chill even though it was packed and hot inside the metro," Joshua said. "Tom Wilson was having some conversation with some fans regarding the Olympics and the sightseeing that they did. They were having their day off today.""
""I got to be honest, I didn't know Tom Wilson at all but my boyfriend, being a good hockey nerd, was telling me everything about him as we were in front of him, in Italian," Joshua said. "He seems such a good guy and a very good player as well!""
Team Canada took the Metropolitana di Milano to attend the short-track speed-skating event at the Milan Ice Skating Arena instead of using a private bus. Several players rode public transit and mixed with regular commuters during a crowded, hot trip. A local attendee rode the metro beside Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson and later posted viral photos and videos of the encounter. Players mostly kept to themselves, but Tom Wilson engaged nearby fans in conversation about the Olympics and sightseeing. One commuter unfamiliar with Wilson left with a positive impression after learning about him from a partner.
