Both my parents passed away while I was playing hockey in Japan.
I was 4700 miles from home. Both times.

My dad went first — Mother’s Day, 1997. Heart attack, no warning. I flew home, went to the funeral, consoled my mom, and flew back to finish the season.

My mom went December 14, 2003. I’d flown home twice that year thinking it was the end. She bounced back. The third call was the one.

Both times — I just kept playing.

My wife told me I didn’t call her for 24 hours after my dad died. I don’t remember it that way. But I trust her.

The irony of my life: I’m now the person athletes call so they don’t have to handle the tough times alone.

After I got back from Russia.
After the contract situation got sorted.
During the COVID bubble — guys started calling.

Players I’d worked with. Goalies I knew. Just reaching out.

And slowly that’s where The Goalie Therapist started.

It’s weird how things work out.

We had no home rink.

So for the rest of the KHL season, our “home” games were at other teams’ rinks.
They put our logo on their ice.
We played in front of someone else’s fans.

That was the KHL in COVID.

January 22, 2020.
On the shuttle to the airport. Head coach gets a call from the GM.
Gets off the phone.
“Boys, I don’t think we’re coming back.”
Everything I owned was still in my hotel room in Beijing.

I never went back for it.

I went to many of my son’s junior games.
Never got anxious. Never got bent out of shape. Just watched and enjoyed it.

Then he made the Team Canada World Junior Challenge. On TSN. Final game against the US.

First two goals went in early.

That was the first time I paced behind the couch.
That was the first time I actually felt it.😁

Kevin Weeks said it straight.
“There is no position in the world of sports like being a goalie. None.”
You’re already isolated. Already high-walking a wire. And half the building is already kind of against you — before you stop a single shot.

We’ve all been there.

Jamie McLennan was calling Ottawa-Tampa between the benches.
TV timeout. His wife FaceTimed him.
Their 9-year-old son — a goalie — had just let one in from outside the blue line.
Her: He let in a goal from the blue line. Him: What would you like me to do about it?

Welcome to being a goalie parent.😂

Goalie Pow Wow #3 is live.
Kevin Weeks. Jamie McLennan. Three NHL goalies talking about the position — what it actually takes mentally, the goalie parent experience, social media and today’s players, and where Hellebuyck goes from here.

No script. No manufactured content. Just a real conversation.
