Blake Wheeler and the Winnipeg Jets would have been on the road last week, trying to make a final push for the playoffs had the National Hockey League season not been called off because of the pandemic.
Now the seven-time All-Star forward is home for dinner each night with his family.
And for the activities, all afternoon. And the teaching, policing and entertaining every morning with his wife, Sam; 7-year-old son, Louie; 4-year-old daughter, Leni; and 2-year-old son, Mase.
“Mase, since he’s been born, he doesn’t want anything to do with me, really, until like a month ago,” Wheeler said.
