Don't get me wrong, there's always a lot of stories of NFL, MLB and NBA players participating in their communities, but it seems as if NHL players go above and beyond.

The biggest thing for me is that the NHL players for the most part GET IT (giving back to the fans). Where is with the other 'big' sports, it's way too much about me and it's an inconvenience (again, there are exceptions).
