I’m guessing that your typical hockey player has a healthy respect for both hockey AND moms.
No doubt, eh?!
And the best part of the game, so far - my Kings are beating their former coach, 2-0! And they are still perfect for the season on the PK! (that's Penalty Kill, for those in Rio Linda)

Exactly right.
As a rule the hockey players we’ve had in St. Louis are much more down to Earth, family oriented, humble, nice people, compared to the other pro sports players.
They REALLY seem to like the family-oriented greater St. Louis area as opposed to more trendy, “hip” cities. Dozens of them have made this their permanent home long after their playing days have ended.
