LAS VEGAS -- Paul Konerko carved out quite a name for himself as a player in Major League Baseball. But hockey was always in the background, a siren song calling him to return to the first sport he loved.
He is heeding that call this week by playing at the Wayne Gretzky Fantasy Camp for the second straight year. His wife sent him to the camp last year as a retirement present; he returned this year because of the fun he had the first time around.
