As a person, I don't know him. Obviously he comes across as a bit of a jerk in certain interviews. From people I know who have had accounts with him, they say he is typically good to his fans.

Also, it is important to note, that much like Gretzky, Hull is a talented player who really supports the role of an enforcer and believes in tough hockey.
Sarcasm my friend.
