#56 - Coach A & Gards | It's More Than a Game: Joy, Pathways & What Really Builds Players
Description
This week on The Hockey Lab Podcast, Coach A and Coach Gards dive deep into what makes the game special — and what it really takes to build a player, on and off the ice.
They talk about the joy that sports bring to families, fans, and communities, the memories that stay with us forever, and how hockey can unite people across generations. ❤️🏒
Then, the guys shift gears into one of the biggest questions players and parents face: What's the right path — OHL or College?
They break down the pros and cons of each system, what "development" really means, and why ice time might be the most underrated factor in becoming a pro.
Real talk. Real hockey. Real stories.
