About this episode
On this episode of the Hockey Think Tank podcast, we bring on former #1 overall NHL draft pick Patrik Stefan. What a journey filled with ups and downs for the incredibly skilled forward from Czech Republic, and we go through many of those ups and downs in this conversation...which many can be great lessons for players coming up in the game today. We talk: -Coming over to the USA at the age of 16 to play pro hockey. -The thrill and pressures of being drafted #1 overall in the NHL. -Advice to his younger self. -Handling the ups and downs of an NHL career. -Mentoring up and coming players today. This was an awesome, candid, honest conversation with a great player and now mentor. We're looking forward to all young players listening!
