Episode 25 features Coach Chris Beaudry. He is a former assistant coach for the Humboldt Broncos. He experienced one of the most tragic days of hockey history as a coach. His story is so unique and inspiring. This is one of the most powerful conversations we’ve ever had on this podcast about personal leadership and mental health for any person out there. It was a discussion we had in our “Coffee with Coaches” series, when the pandemic first began. This being the 3 year anniversary of the Humboldt Broncos tragedy, we felt it was another opportunity to share the wisdom of a coach who had found a way to climb out of a terrible emotional hole in more ways than one. This is an episode for all leaders and people out there!!

Episode 17 features Coach Pete Lenes. Co-Owner of Elev802. It was great to talk about the influences that inspired Swaggy Pete to not only become a professional player but to now become an online influencer for the game of hockey. We get into his philosophies with coaching and why he loves focusing on stickhandling for young players today. It was great to take this time and reconnect with Pete.

As we mentioned last episode, We took a little bit of a break over the last few months, so were excited to bring you some of the episodes we haven’t loaded yet. This episode today might be my favorite one yet. During the pandemic, we started this initiative in our ‘Roger Neilson’s Coaches Connection’ Facebook group called ‘Coffee with Coaches’. We had guest panels join us live with other coaches listening in and asking questions. On this episode, we had 100 coaches from all over the globe join in on this very special panel discussion. Episode 13 features some incredible voices and leadership from Hockey Canada Women's National Team program. We have Gina Kingsbury, who is the Director of the Women's National Team. Troy Ryan, who is the Head Coach of the National team. And the legendary Mel Davidson, who is currently the head scout for the National Team, and also served as the head coach of the 2006 and 2010 gold medal Olympic teams.

Some key topics we touched on included: Why coaches should use this pandemic experience to professionally develop themselves. What resources have they been using during the pandemic to improve their own leadership skills. What were their thoughts on the state of female hockey currently. What’s the key differences to pay attention to when coaching girls vs boys. What has evolved in the game with developing players then vs now. What they believe is most important to building a championship culture, and so much more!! Get your notepad ready...this discussion was AWESOME!!!
