Learn from some of our past clients and hear what they have to say about their journey.

Luke Buss

Luke struggled with low confidence, a lost identity, and hesitation on the ice. With a coaching focus on gratitude, courage, and competition, we rebuilt his confidence. His rekindled passion and drive for the game led to increased performance, and he went from a phase of being de-committed to becoming a top scorer in the BCHL and a highly sought-after recruit.

Kayden Garcia

Kadyn was known for his super competitive nature and drive, but led the league in penalty minutes (PIMs). Through focused approach on emotional control and mental agility, Kadyn has remarkably transformed his gameplay. He now plays significant minutes with composure – harnessing his competitive spirit, and has emerged as a top prospect in both the BCHL and WHL.

Nathan Mackie

Nathan was very serious about hockey and took an overly critical approach to his game. With coaching and mentorship focused on the process, character development and FUN, he has evolved into a leader both on and off the ice. His dedication and adaptability have seen him rise from playing AA to becoming a BCHL captain, BCHL all-star, and a 5 star NCAA recruit.

train with someone who's been there.

Jason Podollan emerged as a natural hockey talent from an early age. Dominating each level of his minor hockey career, Podollan exploded for 224 points in 44 games in Pee Wee AAA, and was drafted by the WHL’s Spokane Chiefs on his 13th birthday. At 14, Podollan led his Bantam league in scoring as a first year, and then joined Jr.A and the BCHL at 15 years old where he scored 20 goals against 20 year olds. After scoring 36 goals as a 16 year old rookie (9th best in WHL history) with the Spokane Chiefs, Podollan caught the attention of Hockey Canada and was selected for the U18 National Team. Entering his NHL draft season Podollan was projected to be a top 10 pick. However, Podollan faced adversity in his WHL sophomore season and was drafted 31st overall to the Florida Panthers in the 1994 NHL Entry Draft. Podollan’s final season as a junior was highlighted with a gold medal in the 1996 World Junior Championships, and becoming the Chiefs all-time leading goal scorer.

Despite high expectations and being a prolific scorer and all-star in the AHL, Podollan’s NHL career with teams like the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Los Angeles Kings was a rollercoaster of triumphs and setbacks.

Motivated by the highs and lows of his professional career, and recognizing that all athletes will experience challenges with performance, consistency and confidence, Jason Podollan established Up My Hockey as the ultimate resource for aspiring hockey players.
