Show Notes:

I’ve been honored to have some incredible conversations on the podcast in 2023. For this episode, I’m highlighting some of the most impactful guests and lessons from the past year. Discussing topics ranging from long term athletic development to data analytics in sports, I really enjoyed gaining different perspectives on how to improve the game of hockey. Speaking with experts like Jim Kielbaso, Fergus Connolly, and Dr. Mal McHugh challenged my thinking and will help me better serve the hockey community. I'm also grateful for the chance to sit down with Stanley Cup champions like John Stevens to learn about the intangibles that help teams succeed at the highest level. Overall, interviewing so many great minds in the sport has been an invaluable learning experience, and I look forward to continuing these important discussions in the new year.
