This guy apparently isn't afraid, from his comment:

 

Ha, great find!

 

I don’t want any Sabre catching those iron fists. Kane will always hold a special place in my heart for his three fight game against Florida. I was there and he whooped Petrovic each time. I’m generally on the fence about fighting in hockey. Most of the time it’s useless “lift the team” or needless “you checked my guy so I’m gonna fight you” nonsense. But man, can it ever rile up a crowd. Sabres lost that game 7-4. Yet it’s one of my favorite games despite the blowout.

Yeah pretty sure Danny Briere was the cross-fit hipster.  I remember him talking about these farm workouts moving tires and stuff before it was a mainstream thing.

 

Ott is the one I remember going to some dudes ranch or something and doing crazy workout stuff.

This is Walter Payton & Jerry Rice kind of work ethic.

 

While other players are vacationing with their families or lifting at their local gyms, this guy is out in Spain at one of the most challenging gyms killing it each and every day.

 

Besides his immense talent, only being 23 years old, and signed under a very friendly contract, this guy is driven to get better like few in the game.

 

You just don't trade players like that.  Give him another year or two and his work ethic will be infectious with the rest of the team.

I don't know whether or not he has a family, but I do picture a few less things getting in the way of this kind of workout for a 23 year old as opposed to someone slightly older.
