The OHL Podcast with Connor Crisp

The OHL Podcast with Connor Crisp

It's not often that you get such a candid conversation with someone so recently removed from the game. But that's what you get with Connor Crisp, who was forced due to injury to retire from hockey at 24 (just six years ago). We talk about that injury (a concussion), his still-unapologetic love for fighting, the challenge of moving to another country at just 16 years old, and the most infamous night of his hockey career -- when the power forward was called upon as an emergency back-up goalie. You'll also want to stick around for the stories about Robbie Ftorek, the stuffed wolf in Sudbury, and a spot-on Sherry Bassin impression. Crisp is running a hockey school today, and I hope he sticks around the game.

The OHL Podcast is presented by Matt Smith Goaltending.
