Publisher's Synopsis
Why would someone pursue a desire against all chances? For Joey Daccord, it was an unquestionable confidence in himself and a relentless love of goalie play. Growing up in a tiny community, he dared to dream big, forging his own road to Arizona State, where he made history as the first NHL prospect there. But his path was never simple; every step, from fighting for recognition in college to overcoming AHL obstacles, tried his fortitude. Joey proved himself once more and grabbed every chance with tenacity when the Seattle Kraken offered him a shot in the expansion draft, therefore demonstrating another uphill climb. His influence goes much beyond the rink since he motivates younger goalie and returns to the community using the same heart he brings to every game.
Joey's narrative goes beyond simply getting to the NHL; it is about challenging expectations, overcoming obstacles, and demonstrating that tenacity can bring aspirations to life. Read his whole path and let it inspire your own quest of excellence.
