Luke Gazdic from Sportsnet interviews Jordan Staal, the captain of the Carolina Hurricanes. The interview provides great insight into Staal's passion for hockey and his positive approach to the game. His teammate, Taylor Hall, describes him as a simple guy who loves his family, the game, and being part of a team. Hall emphasizes that Staal shows up every game, competes to the best of his ability, and is a pillar of consistency. He adds that Staal doesn’t get bogged down by too much, which allows him to stay focused and truly embody his team’s colours. This is what makes him a leader who leads by example and positively influences his teammates.

Coach Rod Brind'Amour, who shapes the team's culture, points out how they seat rookies beside Staal and tell them to watch him. He has seen Staal grow into the ultimate leader, noting that Staal never takes a day off and always gives his best effort. According to Brind'Amour, there is no better leader for the Hurricanes than Jordan Staal.

Staal himself is a positive person who reflects on how much he has learned over the years. He serves as a great example for athletes, coaches, and parents across all sports and levels.
