DARRYL WOLSKI’S 2112 HOCKEY AGENCY
The name was a nod to an old disc jockey’s favorite band.
For many, the 2112 Hockey Agency doesn’t mean
anything, but for Darryl Wolski, it’s homage to his roots as
a rock DJ and his love for Van Halen and Rush.
“I originally wanted to call it 5150, after the first Van Halen album
recorded with Sammy Hagar,” Wolski said with a laugh. “But there
is another meaning to 5150 (5150 also refers to an involuntary
psychiatric hold) and my partner/mentor Gerry Johannson said
he couldn’t be involved with something named 5150.
