Tsakalidis is only three months older than Trybanski, yet he appears to be done. He has not played since the 2007-08 season. The only thing he's done that's been newsworthy since then was buy a big house in Phoenix. So whether he actually came from Greece, Georgia or Russia, we at least know he lived in Phoenix for a bit this time last year. Good to know.
