As many of the NHL, AHL, and other leagues pay tribute to our military veterans, dont forget there is a place for veterans to come and play, and heal - through hockey.

As seen on the USA Hockey Website:

USA Hockey’s Warrior Hockey Discipline is dedicated to injured and disabled U.S. military veterans who have served our country and play the sport of ice hockey. As one of the Disabled Hockey Section's newest disciplines, Warrior Hockey is quickly growing across the country.  While some of the participants played hockey prior to being injured, many try it for the first time for therapeutic reasons.  To be eligible to compete in the Warrior Hockey Discipline, participants must have a discharge under honorable conditions with the ability to provide official documentation from their designated branch of service. 

It is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done, especially with hockey - when I became a coach with the warrior program.
