Respect in Hockey

The headline says it all.

No matter who you are in an organization; Star player, bench warmer, stick boy, fan/volunteer, music guy, It really truly doesn't matter. Respect is the most important thing in a hockey locker room. You dis-respect someone in the organization, you instantly have thrown stones at the organization.

It sounds rather cliche, but it rings true everytime; No one person is bigger then the organization. It doesn't work in any professional league, why should it work here? Give me a break! Whether you are a player, coach, manager or what have you inside a sports organization, you try and be bigger then it, you do not belong there. You represent the organization, and more importantly, Yourself. You make a ass out of you, you make an ass out of the organization you represent.

Simple logic.
