Former Kings enforcer Kevin Westgarth — who hung up his skates after playing last season in Belfast, Northern Ireland — is still adjusting to his new role as the NHL's vice president of business development and international affairs.
"This is a second career where you're not risking injury or a torn ACL or getting punched in the teeth, so it's a little different," he said. "No one's taken any swings at me at work."
Not yet, anyway. "I'm just a quiet guy who's trying to be nice to everybody," he said, a reminder of the humor and intelligence that made him a favorite during his time with the Kings.
