About
An inspiring collection of stories about Canada's most beloved sport, hockey, and the everyday heroes who embody the spirit of the game and help shape its future. Canadian broadcasters Bob McKenzie and Jim Lang bring together players and the people who support them to show us what hockey means to them. Philadelphia Flyer Wayne Simmonds and Paralympian gold medalist Greg Westlake have found ways to give back to show young hockey hopefuls that anything is possible. Ben Fanelli found a way not only to overcome a catastrophic injury to keep playing the game he loves, but is using his story to help others. Renowned Canadian neurosurgeon Dr. Charles Tator, is leading the way to protect athletes from the dangers of brain trauma and concussion. Hockey commentators Andi Petrillo and Harnarayan Singh have broken down barriers to be on air. And Karina Potvin, a youth hockey coach, is welcoming Syrian boys and girls to Canada by introducing them to our national pastime. These are the stories of everyday hockey heroes who defy the odds, advocate for inclusion, and champion the next generation of hockey. From small-town rinks to big city arenas across the country, this collection celebrates everyone who loves our great game.
