It reminded me of the dreams of the young men (and women) who play hockey and get to do it as a living. It&#8217;s a tough sport, but it&#8217;s also obviously rewarding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this post, I wanted to take some time to unpack the key ideas in Bernier&#8217;s acknowledgment of the critical role that others (especially his family) played in his hockey career. Here are some of the key points Bernier made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bernier\u2019s Note One: Family Support<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bernier appreciated the unwavering support he received from his family throughout his career. This support includes his wife, kids, and extended family members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bernier\u2019s Note Two: Childhood Dream<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bernier mentioned that his family&#8217;s support helped him achieve his childhood dream. This idea highlights the profound impact that family can have on a young athlete&#8217;s aspirations and goals. It&#8217;s a narrative of how many Canadian families support their kid&#8217;s dreams to play hockey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bernier\u2019s Note Three: Becoming the Aspired Goaltender<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bernier attributes his family&#8217;s support to his development as a goaltender. He was clear to suggest that their encouragement and presence were instrumental in him becoming the player he aspired to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/thehockeywriters.com\/maple-leafs-success-hinges-matthews-this-season\/\">Maple Leafs\u2019 Success Hinges on Matthews This Season<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Are These Three Areas Crucial to Professional Athletes?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Moving on, I want to explore why these ideas are so important to a professional hockey player.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Need One: Professional Athletes Need Mental and Emotional Support<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Professional athletes, including hockey players, face immense pressure and challenges. Having a supportive family helps provide them with a stable foundation of love, understanding, and encouragement. This support can be crucial in maintaining mental and emotional well-being, which in turn, impacts their performance on the ice. It can be a tough life, but it helps so much with family support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Need Two: Professional Athletes Need to Nurture Their Dreams<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many professional athletes begin their journeys as children with big dreams. Family support during these young years helps nurture these dreams and instill the determination to pursue them. Such early encouragement and belief in their potential can encourage youngsters to work tirelessly to reach the professional level. These are winning characteristics for their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Highest save percentage in Toronto Maple Leafs history (min. 100 games):  <br><br>0.925 \u2014 Jacques Plante<br>0.922 \u2014 Johnny Bower<br>0.915 \u2014 Jonathan Bernier<br>0.914 \u2014 Frederik Andersen<br>0.914 \u2014 Bruce Gamble<br><br>Should Andersen have been kept in the fold for the last 2 seasons with the Leafs? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/T9VHWO2c3p\">pic.twitter.com\/T9VHWO2c3p<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Big Head Hockey (@BigHeadHcky) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BigHeadHcky\/status\/1685050203454537728?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 28, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Need Three: Professional Athletes Need Motivation and Inspiration&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Family members serve as powerful sources of motivation and inspiration. Knowing that their loved ones are behind them, cheering them on, and believing in their abilities can encourage athletes to give their best effort, even during challenging times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Need Four: Professional Athletes Must Balance Personal and Professional Life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Professional hockey players often have demanding schedules that require them to spend large amounts of time away from their families. However, having a strong family support system can help them maintain a balance between their personal and professional lives, reducing stress and improving overall well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Bottom Line for Bernier<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Bernier&#8217;s case, recognizing the pivotal role his family played in his career underscores the importance of such factors in the life of a professional hockey player. It&#8217;s a testament to the powerful relationships between family support and athletic success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For me, it reminded me of the network of support that help all hockey players survive and prosper in this entertaining and difficult game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/oldprof.nhltradetalk.com\/index.php\/2023\/08\/21\/maple-leafs-matthews-beats-mcdavid-on-defense\/\">Maple Leafs Matthews Better Than McDavid in One Area: Defence<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NHL players all retire sometime.
