Puck Daddy chats with Mike Modano about NHL labor talks, his potential comeback and ‘Breaking Bad’

In his first year since retiring from the National Hockey League, Mike Modano says his golf game has improved a little bit.

“When you play so much and play so often you’re almost counterproductive,” Modano said as he prepared for this weekend’s American Century Celebrity Golf Championship in Lake Tahoe, Calif.

Back in 2009 Modano had his best showing at the tournament finishing seventh behind former NHLers Grant Fuhr, Jeremy Roenick and Dan Quinn. “I hadn’t played in a while,” Modano said. “I think that was the first one I’d be back in here in a long time. I was hitting it good up until that point, just didn’t think about it too much, made some putts and that was it.”

So how he feeling about his swing heading into this weekend?
