Ex-NHLer McAmmond imparts wisdom on current hockey generation
Dean McAmmond is giving back to the sport he grew up playing.
The former NHL forward spent the past few days touring around north-central Saskatchewan, talking to young hockey players about his experience playing the game.
“I came out to Saskatchewan to do a couple Faith Nights, one in Nipawin and one in Tisdale,” said McAdmmond, who played most of his major junior career with the Prince Albert Raiders. “They wanted me to meet with their boys…it was just basically a 20-minute talk with their chapel just to share kind of the testimony of my life and how I grew up and what it was like as a young hockey player coming through, very similar to them.”
“I just wanted to share a bit of my faith and how God impacted my career and my life. I think it’s really important nowadays to share that message with them.”
