Episode Details

Chris Marganelli in British Columbia has turned his hockey obsession into an art form, crafting over 1,150 hyper-detailed, hand-painted custom figurines—each one a masterpiece of gear and personality. Starting in 2001 as a post-work hobby, he’s now servicing NHL execs, player families, and Leafs superfans, with Felix Potvin figures dominating his output. Thanks to 3D printing, he can build any pose or piece imaginable, like the Ovechkin-Gretzky record-breaking moment figure for a photographer. His work proves how deep hockey fandom runs—and how passion, skill, and dedication can turn a hobby into something truly legendary.
