Jason Podollan sits down with Kevin Sawyer, current broadcaster for the Winnipeg Jets, and ex NHL tough guy.Kevin Sawyer is a Canadian former National Hockey League right winger who played in the National Hockey League (NHL) with the St. Louis Blues, Boston Bruins, Phoenix Coyotes, and Mighty Ducks of Anaheim.  His road to the NHL was not typical, as he discusses how difficult it was for him to be cut from his home town Junior B hockey club at the age of 16. Through grit, toughness, and perseverance, Kevin slowly climbed the ranks in the eyes of the scouts, and earned every second of ice time in the NHL.This is an amazing story about hard work and determination, and a great insight to the mind of one of the toughest guys to ever play the game. Kevin was not the biggest guy on the ice, but he describes his fighting style as a "tactician" of fighting.  He prides himself on being able to outsmart his opponent, opposed to out boxing them.Over his 10 year pro career, Kevin ended up fighting NHL legends such as Tie Domi, Chris Simon, Stu Grimson, Bob Probert, Georges Laraque and many, many more. I hope you enjoy this episode of Up My Hockey, with Kevin Sawyer.
