Kevin Fiala will be a father for the first time in May. The Swiss NHL star and his wife Jessica announced this on Instagram. While congratulations are pouring in from friends, teammates and even competitors in the NHL, a single, unknown Twitter user can claim: “I always knew.”
Because when Kevin Fiala started the season with a bear market in October, user @Skkyyyyyyyyyyy made a bold prediction: “I’ll bet a billion dollars that Fiala’s wife is pregnant. It is well documented that athletes are negatively impacted by their partner’s pregnancy.”
@NHLRussell It’s been well documented that when an athletes partner is pregnant, their play immediately changes for the worse.
I bet you a billion dollars Fiala’s wife is pregnant.
He’s a completely different player.

By the way, the bear market is a bit overstated. Even though Fiala probably won’t reach the one point per game mark this season, he is still the second-best Swiss scorer in the NHL with 16 goals and 31 assists in 57 games.
By the way, the tweet from back then also reached Jessica Fiala. Shortly after the pregnancy announcement, she posted a screenshot of it on Instagram with a meme and demanded: “Give this man his money. (Not me, I bet on the same thing).”

By the way, it has not (yet) been clearly proven that prospective fathers’ joys negatively influence athletes’ performance. What is clear, however, is that pregnancy also influences the father’s hormonal balance; for example, testosterone levels can drop by up to a third. (abu)
