“...Meanwhile, I can’t be a normal kid, and no one really understands why”. “It hadn’t hit me that... hey, if you don’t speak up this could be the rest of your life”. One of the best kids you’ll ever meet shares his incredibly powerful, and difficult story of living with concussion symptoms as a teenage kid, and more then just the concussion symptoms, the other stuff that comes with it... the anxiety, the identity struggles, adjusting to a new version of yourself. Incredibly brave story from one of the best kids you’ll ever meet, Hugh Osler.

Glaws is currently the Director of Scouting for the Canmore Eagles of the AJHL, and as well the Head Coach of the U18 AAA Flames in Calgary. We talk coaching... discussing leadership, the challenges for young leaders to lead amongst their peers. As well, Mike and I chat about the real purpose of AAA coaches that can often be lost... it’s not the wins, and the losses, but its about development, and opportunity. Enjoy this episode!

Chris Leinweber played a number of years professionally overseas after a great career at UND that led him to a national championship. Chris talks about his experiences in the game, playing for some great coaches, and life today as a member of the CFD!

Now over two years sober, Eric Doyle shares his journey from addiction, alcoholism to recovery. Can’t thank Eric enough for his bravery in sharing this story, and his message.

Lots of great insights and stories from Tazzo’s playing days. Including some hard lessons he learned along the way playing the game - including the time his dad was so mad at him he wanted his coach to cut him from the WHL because he didn’t deserve to play, or the time he had to answer the bell with one of the toughest fighters to ever play while playing in the ECHL.
