I grew up playing baseball, so I always gravitate towards that in the offseason. I've found that it really helps my hand eye coordination, which is obviously crucial in hockey. My dad was always a big proponent of playing multiple sports and cross training, which is where I got my love of baseball, basketball, golf, and hockey. There's just something about trying to master multiple sports that continues to feed the fire inside me. Lets say I'm coming off a great season on the ice and I start playing a little pick up baseball with my high school pals. After a few at-bats, I'm humbled beyond belief. It helps me stay grounded, but also unplug from hockey because it can certainly be a long season and there are times when it does become a bit of a chore. Having a 'vacation' from hockey while also staying fit and working on similar attributes is a great endorsement for cross-training in general, especially in the offseason. Staying sharp and in shape is crucial during those long offseason months.
