50 Kings - Mathieu Schneider

Mathieu Schneider played 1289 games in the National Hockey League, divided amongst 10 different teams – 11 if you count the Montreal Canadiens twice. After living in one third of the NHL cities it might be hard-pressed for someone to develop any kind of roots or emotional connection to any one particular city.

But 16 years after Schneider signed as a free agent with the Los Angeles Kings he sits outside at a Starbucks in El Segundo, reminiscing about his time in a Kings jersey. He chooses a seat in the sun, hoping to soak up as many SoCal rays as he can before leaving his second home to return to work in Toronto, Canada.
