Show Notes

Brent Gilchrist is best remembered by his teammates.

Before I go any further, the above statement is a HUGE honor,

When you have earned the respect of your locker room you have succeeded as a hockey player.

Ask Brendan Shanahan or Steve Yzerman, or Chris Osgood about what Brent Gilchrist provided the Detroit Red Wings during their run to become Stanley Cup Champions in 1998 and they will tell you...

Guts...

Character...

Sacrifice...

Brent Gilchrist put the team first and played through incredible pain and agonizing injections to wear the Red Wing jersey, until he tore his groin from the bone.

He made every Red Wing taller, stronger, and more resilient from his example.

Gilchrist shares where he learned why the team comes first, and why it matters.
