You would be surprised that some of those kids do it. I know its gross to believe the trope that not letting your kid take the summer off doesn't work but.... There are probably less than three players in the NHL that did not play a significant amount of extracurricular spring/summer hockey. Other sports don't hurt but only in parallel.
If you see any player with clips at the Brick Tournament, that means his parents were intense hockey parents and that player has played an insane amount of hockey. i.e. Johnny G.
