Well folks, that's it for me. After playing my first game 15 seasons ago, I am officially retiring from professional hockey. I want to thank everybody who has helped me along the way, this has been an unbelievable ride and I can't wait for what comes next!
Thank you all for the kind words, messages and the reception at the game tonight. I fought through an array of emotions to get through that game. Having all of your support means the world to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I was so happy to finally meet my buddy, Ethan last night. His love for the game is unmatched! It was a pleasure to finally meet you

Safe travels and see you soon! Keep fighting kiddo!
I just wanted to say that I am so thankful for all of your messages of support, as well as all of the thoughtful gifts that I've received. This obviously isn't how I pictured things playing out, and need some time to process. I will properly get my thoughts out to you all shortly
Not the result we wanted, but it was 1 of the best games Ive been a part of for years. It had a little bit of everything. I cant imagine anybody not being entertained. I personally have nothing left in the tank. Looking forward to a recovery day tomorrow! Mentally and physically
I've wanted to share my story for years and was finally able to do so. Thank you for sharing my story, Bob. I hope this can inspire others and remind them that they are not alone in their struggles.
In shock right now. Grahamer was a great person and a great talent with a very bright future. Always came to the rink with a smile on his face and loved the game. Completely heart broken right now. RIP Brother 🙏🏼
🍊🏒 The Steelers are devastated to advise that Alex Graham sadly passed away this weekend.

I've recently adopted the ideology that I will never let anyone get by me without understanding that they might be hurting inside. I hope you all will consider doing the same 🙏🏼
So proud of my boy, Z and his teammates! Taking home the state championship yesterday! I am so thankful for these streams. I was watching right up until warmups yesterday 🤷🏻♂️ Proud dad!

My first win as a coach. Got a little emotional with this one. A lot of hard work has gone into getting this program up and running! Thankful to be surrounded by such great coaches, players and parents!
Just learned of the passing of my dear friend Phyllis Ferguson. Words can't describe how grateful I am for all of her love & support for me when I was just a punk kid trying to find my way. She took me under her wing and never gave up on me. You will be greatly missed.
Job well done! Raced home to watch my daughter do her thing! First tournament of the year. Wearing number 12! 😁 Was named captain of the team today! 💪🏼 Beyond proud. 2-0 to start the day.
Never easy being away during the holiday season. Hug your loved ones folks. Praying these new restrictions don't block their travel plans later this month! 🙏🏼

Wow! Y'all are the best. I had no idea the type of numbers that showed up for the Belfast trip. Gutted it didn't work out. Beyond thankful for the support 🙏🏼
My kinda Sunday 🙌🏼 Nothing better than watching your kids excel in something that they love. Especially when you mix in a little playoff football 🤷🏻♂️
I hope you enjoy this read folks. Craig reached out and wanted to tell my story about my career in its totality. Thank you for taking the time to write this
@CraigSMorgan
It was great reminiscing and recapping my career. Thank you to Dallas Eakins and Aaron Fox as well!
As players gear up for the season, a reminder: Not everyone realizes their NHL dream, but there's still a good pro life out there somewhere.
Nobody embodies that alternate dream & the tenacity required to realize it more than former Coyote Justin Hodgman.
Big thank you to my former

There has now been 27 school shootings resulting in death or injury to date in 2022 in the USA. When will enough be enough?! DO SOMETHING! This cannot be accepted as normalcy!
