In this episode, we are joined by Toronto Maple Leafs Forward #11, Best selling Author of three Children's Books, Founder of Eleven Gaming/SoaR Gaming - Zach Hyman.
We were almost teammates at University of Michigan, as I ended up going to the OHL. Played our first Toronto Maple Leaf game together, with it being Zach's first game in the NHL as well, in his hometown at that. Played in a pivotal playoff run for both of our careers as Toronto Marlies, as we were teammates thereafter for two Playoff Seasons as Maple Leafs following.
Zach has a well roundedness to his pursuits of passion and business that is uncommon in our Sport. His consistency as a player and person is admirable and made him a Leader in every locker room we’ve shared. I am lucky to have played with him, and lucky too to reminisce together in this 4th episode of the Podcast.

In this episode, we are joined by 2018 Hockey Hall of Fame Inductee, 4-time Olympic Gold Medalist, 2019 Order of Hockey in Canada recipient - Jayna Hefford.
For Team Canada she was dominant for nearly two decades. She embodies hard work, conviction, passion for our sport, and a will to win. I truly appreciated our conversation together, loved some of her celebration stories, and left inspired by her passion to commit to being better than day before. I am excited to continue to talk to a wide range of Leaders I look up to, and Jayna certainly has a Resumé to speak of how to be successful from experience.

In this episode, we are joined by Canadian sports journalist Elliotte Friedman. He currently serves as a hockey reporter for Sportsnet and as an insider for the NHL Network. He is a regular panelist on CBC's Hockey Night In Canada. It felt important to have Elliotte join us early on in this process, as he was one of the people who gave me the nudge to start this podcast in the first place. His encouragement meant a lot. Join us as we discuss each other's journey to success and his rise in media, our relationship with mindfulness, how we can be a positive light during this dark time, and further discovery of where the Connor Carrick Podcast is going. Thank-you Elliotte for joining us.
