STAMFORD, Conn. — Whether perched behind the bench clutching a paper cup of black coffee or tutoring 7-year-old skaters in the art of on-ice tag, Martin St. Louis approaches his new role with the same intensity that won him two N.H.L. scoring titles and a Stanley Cup.

More than four months after ending a 16-season N.H.L. career that will almost certainly land him in the Hall of Fame, St. Louis has seamlessly transformed into a full-time father and coach for his sons, Ryan, Lucas and Mason.
