With summer now upon us and hockey still months away it's time to take a break from the sport and enjoy the warm weather outside. There are plenty of other activities to spend time doing while keeping the body fresh for the new season. Here's a look at what some familiar faces in the hockey world are doing with their time away from the game.
Some players spent their time giving back to the community:
