Imagine being thrown into net during an NHL game without any warm-up and very little heads up. Our guest, David Ayres, did just that - and won.

Many of you will remember when he took over our hockey news feeds for a short time in 2020 after he stepped into a game for the Carolina Hurricanes as an EBUG. On today’s episode of Our Kids Play Goalie, we dive in deeper beyond that moment and into David’s life as a hockey coach to explore his thoughts on the importance of preparation and a coach's role in achieving that.
