He often simply finds himself sitting back and reflecting on life. When asked what he does in his spare time, he replies "Well, I don't know whether I like it or not, but mostly what I do is think."
His younger brothers certainly admire their philosophical sibling as both a player and a leader.
"I regard Mark as one of the most talented and skilled players I know," Dominic said.
"Mark is a leader on the team both on and off the ice," Steve said. "He leads by example and he's one of fittest and hardest workers on the team."
Mark has made it a point to be a guide for his brothers on the team. Indeed, he considers himself to be very close with both of them. In past years, he roomed with Steve on road trips.
"Steve pretty much didn't need any help and he adjusted well to begin with," Mark said. "My involvement has been that he asks me when something comes up from his perspective, and I tell him things if something induces me to from my mine. Otherwise I leave him alone."
In terms of hockey, Mark said he benefits most from playing against his brothers because they improve his game. Of course, Mark is glad they are on his team for games, but he said he feels more pressure to win when his brothers play with him.
