I always try to teach our players: respect the law officers and the police, mainly because a lot of times they grow up with this.
Picture this: a hockey player on the verge of NHL stardom, only to fall into the depths of addiction and homelessness. That's the raw, real-life story Brady Leavold shares in this gripping episode of 'Hockey 2 Hell and Back'. Joined by legendary coach Brian 'Killer' Kilrea, they dive into tales of resilience, recovery, and the transformative power of the sport they love. Brian Kilrea, often hailed as the greatest hockey coach of all time, doesn't need much introduction.
His legacy speaks volumes. But this episode isn't just about his illustrious career; it's about the human side of hockey. Together with Leavold, they explore how the sport can be a lifeline for those battling personal demons. Halfway through, Ottawa 67's legend Lance Galbraith joins the conversation, adding another layer of depth and camaraderie.
The trio discusses not only their love for hockey but also the importance of respect for law enforcement, the vital role of teammates and mentors in recovery, and the sheer power of a positive mindset. The episode also shines a spotlight on the Puck Support Foundation, an organization dedicated to supporting the hockey community through mental health and addiction issues. Leavold's journey from addiction to becoming a beacon of hope within the hockey world underscores the foundation's mission.
If you're a fan of heartfelt stories, personal redemption, and the unbreakable spirit of athletes, this episode is a must-listen. It’s not just about hockey; it’s about life’s biggest battles and victories.
