Nic, who hails from a hockey background, played at the college level before briefly joining the Anaheim Ducks professionally in the 2010s. After a series of transitions in his career, he ultimately retired from hockey in 2018, having played for a total of four years.
He reportedly ended up finding his calling as a real estate broker in the Nashville area.

While he had no children of his own, the realtor shared a close bond with his family, including his nieces and nephews. Earlier this month, he had shared heartwarming pictures with them on social media, showcasing the love and happiness he shared with his loved ones.
Nic had been engaged to Todd and Julie Chrisley's second daughter, Savannah, for a bit between 2018 and 2020, but the reality TV daughter ended up calling off the marriage, and the two broke up.
They'd been dating since 2017, and the late former hockey player even appeared in a few episodes of Chrisley Knows Best.
At the time of the break-up, Savannah opened up about her engagement with Nic.
"When we got engaged, I feel like it was for all the wrong reasons. When he proposed, I knew it shouldn't have been happening," she told TMZ. "It was filmed, it was on TV. His family was there, my family was there. It was not the way I would want it to go down, ever."
