Scott Hunter

The Public Face: Widely recognized as one of the nicest, most professional men in the NHL. He is a media darling, incredibly modest, and a natural leader who fiercely protects his teammates.

The Private Side: Deeply shaped by a lonely childhood as an orphan, Scott is intensely private and emotionally guarded. When he falls for juice bar barista Kip Grady, his true, goofy, and fiercely loving personality comes to light

True Crime Podcasts & Info-Dumping: In the television series, fans heavily note a hilarious and endearing quirk: when Scott is nervous or flirting, he completely loses his cool and begins heavily "info-dumping" about his interest in true crime podcasts and documentaries.

Pre-Game Rituals (The Lucky Smoothie): Scott takes his pre-game rituals incredibly seriously. His romance with Kip begins because he becomes convinced that a very specific blueberry-banana smoothie made by Kip is his good luck charm to break an on-ice scoring slump.

Philanthropy & LGBTQ+ Activism: Scott's biggest interest outside of playing hockey is giving back. Having grown up in poverty, he donates extensively to children's hospitals. Following his landmark decision to publicly come out on the ice, he channels his passion into becoming a major activist for inclusivity in hockey, even co-founding a hockey camp to support queer youth.

Business Ownership (The Kingfisher): Showing an interest in building a life after sports, Scott eventually expands his horizons into entrepreneurship by becoming the co-owner of a venue called The Kingfisher alongside fellow character Eric Bennett.

Mexican Food: When he's finally able to drop his strict athlete diet and hide away from the cameras for a normal date night, his go-to comfort food is Mexican cuisine

His Mother: His father was never in the picture. His mother worked late hours at a grocery store to support them and sacrificed immensely to buy him second-hand hockey gear. Scott was a latchkey kid who cooked meals for her and eventually took care of her when she fell ill. She passed away from an illness (often noted by fans as cancer) when Scott was 15 years old
