LARAQUE: Because a conservative sport—if players are too conservative, how do you help grow the game? You want everyone to get to know you. If you want people to know the athletes, you need to know their personality.
HARRIS: Showing personality is huge. I feel like the more that kids can relate to players, the more that kids can get to know players, or players of color... and there's the younger kids who might watch hockey, and there might be a Black kid and he might not see anyone that looks like him, or maybe acts like him on the ice. I feel like there needs to be more coverage around how players really are, and get to show that fun and the culture, and show that we're humans. I feel like that would go a long way.
