Episode 14: Hockey Dads, Daddy Issues & the Development Spiral

What happens when Dad means well… but does too much?

This week, Scott and Jamie break down the complicated role of fathers in youth hockey - from car ride critiques and coach critiques to the quiet moments that actually matter. It’s not just about showing up. It’s about how you show up.

Drawing from real convos and personal experience, the guys dive into:
- Why some kids tense up the second they get in the car
- The invisible line between helping and hovering (and when dads cross it)
- The power of just being present - no clipboard, no pressure

Plus: how to reset after a rough game, and a few uncomfortable truths about how your vibe can shape your kid’s entire hockey identity.

If you’ve ever had to ask yourself, “Am I making this better, or worse?” - this episode’s for you.
