First Hockey Memory: "I have to go way back...my dad used to work at the hockey rink and when I was really young, we'd all wake up really early and I'd go to the rink before anyone else. Or get there before school. That's probably the earliest memory I have. I wasn't very good back then and I didn't really like it because my feet hurt."
