As we lace up for the final segment, the conversation pivots to the gritty details of player motivation and development across different tiers of hockey. Austen and Carson provide insight into the unique NJHL player awards, the impact of excessive penalties on player safety, and the delicate balance coaches must strike when advocating for their team without incurring the wrath of officials.
