Episode 116 - Patrick O’Sullivan

On this episode of the Hockey Think Tank podcast, we bring on former NHL player Patrick O'Sullivan to talk some hockey and his journey through the game! This was an extremely open and honest conversation that any hockey player, parent, or coach will be able to take a lot from. We talk:

 

-Growing up with a physically abusive father

-Being a phenom at the younger ages (Played junior hockey at 13!)

-Scoring the game winning goal to help secure USA's first ever gold medal at the World Junior Championships

-An unreal encounter with Wayne Gretzky at the NHL draft

-The human side of the NHL journey

-Falling back in love with the game and helping youth hockey players today 

 

Thanks so much again to Patrick for hopping on the podcast! Thank you also to GELSTX, our title sponsor. And thank you to all of our loyal listeners who continue to make our podcast one of the top hockey podcasts out there!
