Well before he became the star prospect we all know and (for the most part) love today, Gabe Johnson was actually a star in a different sport: soccer. He was a standout performer in his local soccer league, giving his all on the ice field as a steady presence who played either midfield, full back or centerback. In fact to this day Johnson still participates in this league when he has time, because soccer is something he still remains very passionate about. Obviously it became evident that his calling was in hockey, but Johnson loves coming back to his old league now and again to play another sport he could have become a big prospect in. He didn't make any wage playing these games, since the league is a decent few levels below where wages are paid for playing, but the real payment is getting to play with his old friends who he can't see much anymore due to his busy schedule that often keeps him apart from his hometown.
