NHL star says he considered joining the CIA!

Sometimes it's the most seemingly basic questions that produce the most fascinating answers.

In a recent interview with ESPN's Emily Kaplan, Buffalo Sabres Star forward was asked what his life would have looked like if he hadn't made it as a professional hockey player, and his answer was amazing.

"I always thought it would be cool to be in the CIA or Homeland Security," said Eichel as per ESPN. "It's obviously kind of scary, but if you watch enough shows about it, you get curious enough."

While it's hard to picture the Buffalo Sabres skilled forward as a spy, or counter-intelligence officer, given the level of dedication it requires just to make it to the National Hockey League we're not willing to say it would have been impossible. 

It also has to be said that being a professional NHL player would certainly provide an excellent cover story for a CIA operative....
