Description
On this episode of the Hockey Think Tank podcast, we bring on former tough guy for the St. Louis Blues, Reed Low. Here is his roster of players that he went toe-to-toe with in his career:
Probert. Domi. Larocque. McCarty. Brashear. Fedoruk. Stock. Manson. Worrell. Godard. Parker. Downey. Dingman...that's a pretty heavy list and it's only the half of it.
We have a great discussion on Reed's role as an enforcer, protector, glue guy, and how that role played such a big part in his teams' successes. We also talk about the role of fighting in the game today. It's a spirited discussion to say the least, and brings incredible perspective into a topic so hotly debated in the hockey world.
Reed is an unreal guy, and you're sure to laugh a lot, think a lot, and reflect a lot during this episode.

In this episode, we talk about many topics relating to high level youth hockey including Exposure vs. Development, Coaching the Individual AND the team, the college commitment process, and even the new emphasis on USA Hockey's "no banging on the boards" rule.
