Demers was born on November 4, 1943, in Providence, Rhode Island.
His parents were Kathleen and Arthur Demers.
He grew up near the Rhode Island Auditorium, and became a “rink rat,” earning time on the ice in exchange for cleaning the ice and sweeping the stands.
At 12 years old, he became an assistant stick boy for the visiting team at Rhode Island Reds of the American Hockey League.
A Vietnam-era veteran, Demers served in 1961-1965, then enrolled at Brown University and the University of Rhode Island to study athletic training and sports medicine.
After three seasons with the Rhode Island Reds (1965-68), Demers worked as the head athletic trainer with the Columbus Checkers (International Hockey League) for one season before joining the Springfield Kings (1969-1972) as head athletic trainer.
The Springfield Kings was an L.A. Kings farm team.
The Kings played at the Forum in Inglewood, California (1967-1999).
Demers was a first responder with one assistant who treated injuries, planned players’ off-ice and off-season conditioning programs, did massage therapy, physical therapy, and attended to the team’s nutrition needs.
