Anze Kopitar is a sure-fire hall of fame ice hockey player, the star of the Los Angeles Kings NHL team since 2006. He led them to two Stanley Cups and is considered one of the greatest hockey players in history. He's also one of Slovenia's most famous citizens--top level athletes are among the best informal ambassadors for tourism. Kopitar has announced that his family will move back home to Bled after his playing career, so you may very well run into his at a cafe or the supermarket in a few years time. But still at the top of his game, we spoke to him after a pre-season practice to talk about his favorite things in Bled, and whether he practices alley-oop ice hockey assists.
