No, no, no. There is a difference in the intentions and actions of someone like Maria - someone who is considered a "stalker", then someone who is a great fan of a hockey player. You dont seem to be doing anything that crosses that line.

Maria would con her way into their lives for monetary gain and for self-gratification, she had no self control.

She lives in her own fantasy land. She's whacked!

You do what many fans do. You said youre respectful of this person, so there is no need for concern. Im sure he is glad to have fans like you.

Dont worry :-)
