Are you a fan of the game of ice hockey?
Do you see the beauty that comes from the intensity that takes place on the ice?
Are you in need of an inspirational story or two?
As a sport, ice hockey is an intense battle waged by two teams over a sheet of rock-hard ice, but the battles and stories that happen off the ice can be just as intense. Because of that intensity, the people involved in the game often have to overcome obstacles that have nothing to do with the puck or the game itself. When that happens to a player with the world watching, those onlookers are inspired by the grit and tenacity the players demonstrate.

When those skills are put on display, crowds will marvel and cheer. But when tragedy strikes, those same skills prove to the world that moving forward is possible no matter what happens.
