Episode description

This week the fellas have a conversation with Chris Caderstrand, a competitor in Canada's Ultimate Challenge. Chris grew up playing hockey in Martensville, Saskatchewan, and went on to play in the WHL. However, his life took a sudden turn when a heavy machinery accident resulted in the amputation of his leg. Despite the setback, Chris taught himself how to skate and snowboard again and eventually found a new passion in sledge hockey. He worked hard to improve his skills, and eventually made his way onto Team Canada's development program, becoming the captain and earning a silver medal at the 2015 World Championships. Tune in as Chris shares his inspiring story of perseverance, determination, and finding purpose through sport after facing a life-altering injury.
