From the Columbus Dispatch
story:Hockey has been Pineault's passion from almost the time he learned to grip a stick in Holyoke, Mass. In recent years, he also has developed an interest in firefighting.
Arriving in Columbus for voluntary offseason conditioning in June, Pineault impulsively began calling local firehouses and eventually found a station willing to accept him in a ride-along program.
Norwich firefighter Jeromy Archey said Station 83 usually attracts students from medic or fire school. Pineault is the company's first pro athlete.
"Adam has fit in great with the guys,' said Archey, a Blue Jackets fan. 'He chips in and does whatever is asked, cleaning up around the station or loading hoses on the truck."
