Cristin is a former standout on the Boston College women’s hockey team, so you ought to wonder, is there friendly competition between the two on the ice?

During an interview, Nate said: “We skated together for the first time last year during the lockout when I was playing in Alaska. There was a little bit of competition. She put the skates on and she kept saying she was rusty but I disagreed. I thought she still looked pretty good. She’s a great skater. Every now and then we talk about hockey but she’s good about it and doesn’t bring it up very often. She jokes that she’s retired for a reason. But it’s really cool to be able to say that your wife played hockey as well.”
