The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast

For those of us growing up in North America watching the NHL, it's easy to forget that the world of hockey extends well beyond the borders of this continent.

Ethan Werek began his pro hockey career being drafted by the New York Rangers, and has spent the past few years playing for a variety of teams across the globe. Most notably, he recently took part in the 2022 Winter Olympic Games in Beijing playing for the Chinese Men's National Hockey Team.

So what was it like as a Canadian born athlete playing hockey AGAINST Team Canada in the Olympics? And what has his experience been playing in the KHL over the past few years?

Ethan shares this story and many more this week on The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast.

We may see them as Superstars when the likes Mitch Marner, Sidney Crosby, and Connor McDavid break into the NHL, but what we don't get to see is the amount of hard work, training, advice, and development they had to subject themselves to in their life leading up to The Show.

This week we're joined by Lindsay Hofford, the Founder and CEO of Pro Hockey Development Group who has spent time as a head coach for the London Knights, a scout for The Toronto Maple Leafs, and an Assistant GM for the Arizona Coyotes.

Lindsay and Pro Hockey Development will be working with Frameworth to find a way to help some of the world's top prospects better memorialize their paths to professional hockey through memorabilia.
