On this episode of the Hockey Think Tank podcast, we take you out to Western Canada and speak to former college star and 9+ year professional player, Brandon Wong. Brandon grew up in beautiful Victoria, BC and played his college hockey at Quinnipiac University where he was a Hobey Baker candidate (he scored A LOT of points). After his career there he played almost a decade of pro hockey before returning to Western Canada to become a dedicated hockey skills coach. We talk a lot of great topics including:
-The benefits of playing junior hockey
-What differentiates the kids that "make it"
-How much coaching to do on the bench during the game
-Much more!

*Opening music: Forget the Whale - Take to the Skies (Instrumental)
