Episode 51 - Paul Stastny

On this episode of the Hockey Think Tank podcast, we bring on NHL Superstar and one of our good friends Paul Stastny.  Paul grew up playing hockey in St. Louis where he and Jeff became best friends. The two then went on to play for Omaha in the USHL where Paul was one of the top players in the league.  He then went to Denver University, won a National Championship, and then began an NHL career that has spanned 13 seasons and 4 teams. He also is a two-time Olympian and silver medalist. In our conversation, we talk about growing up with an NHL Hall of Fame dad, the importance of playing multiple sports growing up, how NHL coaching and playing has changed over his career, and much more. We also talk intimately about the legendary gold medal game against Canada in Vancouver.  Such a great talk with such a great joy, thank you for tuning in!!
