Episode 265 - Jack Smiley

On this episode of the Hockey Think Tank podcast, Jeff and Topher welcome Jack Smiley! You may have heard some of Jack’s story when he suffered a stroke on the ice in 2022 while playing at Endicott College - but its the story of his journey back to hockey that is unbelievably inspiring.

In this episode we discuss:

— Resiliency and motivation

— The impact of your own words, to yourself

— Realizing that someone out there is doing better, with worse

AND SO MUCH MORE!
