The Next Shift Hockey Podcast

A hockey podcast realized by former players, tailored for the players of the past, present and future...The Next Shift uncovers the untold stories of triumph and tribulation within the game as well as in the arena of life after hockey. We aim to bring on guests that share a common denominator, in that, the lessons they learned and the adversity they faced as players molded their character as people - - enabling them to reach their post-hockey goals and dreams as innovators, entrepreneurs, and leaders. These shared experiences of defining moments inspire us, our guests, and listeners to conquer each opportunity we are presented...The Game Never Ends, This is Just Your Next Shift.
