NHL players are very good at ping pong.
It’s well known that many players partake in a pre-game warmup of kicking a soccer ball around. What is less known, at least to this fan, is that most (if not all) NHL dressing rooms have a ping pong table for their players. It was this fact that inspired Dominic Moore to create Smashfest, a charity event benefitting the Katie Moore and Steve Moore Foundations. The event gives fans a chance to play in a doubles tournament with an NHL player, as well as watch the singles pro-vs-pro tournament, silent and live auctions, open bar courtesy of Steam Whistle Brewing (the venue), and the opportunity to mingle and chat with NHL pros of past and present, media personalities, and other surprise guests.
