per the STrib:

Away from the rink, the father and son tend to avoid hockey talk. Don’s goal is simply to be a dad. Mario said he appreciates the relationship boundaries as he works to create his own identity at Notre Dame.

“It’s kind of nice being a dad instead of coach. I’ve been on both sides of it,” said Don Lucia, who coached his older son, Tony, at Minnesota. “We truly do try to keep the relationship more father-son, not a coaching situation. I want to try and be there for support as much as I can.”
