So I'm out in Penticton, B.C.
at the Okanagan Hockey School.
The big name out there is Andy Moog.
Andy Moog is kind of the headline player.
And I go out all the way from Ottawa.
Yeah, I'm out there from Ottawa.
I'm with one of my coaches and one of my friends.
We go there and we're there for two weeks.
And this is the first time my parents couldn't get me to go to sleepaway camp.
They couldn't bribe me.
So I'm going to this camp and I've never been away from home.
And the level of fear that I had at nine when I got there and the disdain for being here and homesickness, like it was on steroids.
And
It was Bob McGill who in the moment looked at me and could see like something was up.
And he took time.
It's this whole movement we're talking about now on check on your teammates.
But this is about a nine-year-old.
And he says, you're right.
And so I just decided to spill the beans.
And I said, I'm homesick.
