This is true. He geniunely didn't understand the idolization of hockey/sports players. He wasn't judgemental about it or anything... I got the sense it seriously perplexed him.
However, he was also entirely thankful he was able to make the living he did by doing so. He wasn't blind to that.
This isn't surprising, but I got the vibe that the guy's passion in life wasn't hockey and that he saw it as an enjoyable job. He took pride in it and worked hard at it (mostly) like a good employee in any profession.
