Roons is the ultimate teammate, an NHLER who has gritted his way from one level of hockey to the next.

S1 EP12 - Marnie McBean | Grace & Grit Of Rowing, Finding Your Excellence, Olympic Nerves & LGBTQ+ Advocacy Jul 01, 2020

Show notes

Marnie Mcbean and I talk water-feel, heart rates for extended periods of time above 200 bpm, Olympic nerves, and the gift of finding something you love to do. She is first off, an extraordinary story teller, with an extraordinary story to tell. Marnie, a 3 time Gold Medalist, shares with me in this episode about the grace and grit of rowing, how she loved a sport so cruel to the human body. We go into goal setting and visualization while clarifying all the imagining in the world is empty without providing the back bone base of hard work.
.
I learned so much from this Olympic Champion and am grateful we got to cherish and celebrate Marnie's story together. Happy Canada Day to those who celebrate, I enjoyed my time north of the border thoroughly, and figured it only appropriate to feature a Canadian on the show this week. I look forward to your comments. #FeedYourFire and join me to become a more #CuriousCompetitor

S1 EP9 - Connor Brown | Growing Into Your Own, The Power of Consistency & Catan Nights Jun 10, 2020

Show notes

In this episode we welcome Ottawa Senators Forward, Connor Brown.

I loved Connor Brown as a teammate and still do as a friend and an easy Catan Opponent. He's competitive, detailed, a true professional on ice. Off the ice he's a great person, dog dad, and it's been fun to grow as young pros to go our separate ways, but remain friends.

Brownie's story as a late bloomer, his versatility as a player, and his drive still to become more in the NHL as a player and room leader leaves many a lesson in our conversation. Flat out, I enjoyed our time together, I always do, and whatever handicap Browntown says he is-take 2 off it....

Thank you Brownie for an awesome time recording together.

S1 EP4 - Zach Hyman | Toronto Maple Leafs Forward, Best-Selling Author & Eleven Gaming Founder May 01, 2020

Show notes

In this episode, we are joined by Toronto Maple Leafs Forward #11, Best selling Author of three Children's Books, Founder of Eleven Gaming/SoaR Gaming - Zach Hyman.
We were almost teammates at University of Michigan, as I ended up going to the OHL. Played our first Toronto Maple Leaf game together, with it being Zach's first game in the NHL as well, in his hometown at that. Played in a pivotal playoff run for both of our careers as Toronto Marlies, as we were teammates thereafter for two Playoff Seasons as Maple Leafs following.

Zach has a well roundedness to his pursuits of passion and business that is uncommon in our Sport. His consistency as a player and person is admirable and made him a Leader in every locker room we’ve shared. I am lucky to have played with him, and lucky too to reminisce together in this 4th episode of the Podcast.
