I made some good
friends over the
years playing.
One of my best friends still to
this day is a goalie I played with
growing up since I was 7 years old.
Stay in the moment. Don't worry
about what's going to happen in
the future. You've got a lot
of time for that, so just have fun,
work hard and see where
hockey takes you."
The most important part
of youth hockey is having fun and
instilling attributes in kids that they
can take with them beyond the game."

The coaches that have
fun and want to be out
there and get engaged
with the players on
the ice, those are the
ones that help
develop passion."
