Ken Dryden shares insights on the evolution of hockey and its enduring emotional core.
Step inside a rare, candid conversation with hockey legend Ken Dryden as he reflects on the evolution of the game—from lighter equipment and lightning‑fast shifts to the global rise of new hockey hotbeds. With memorable insights like “even these kids at Bantam level… they know what they’re doing” and vivid stories about facing unpredictable shooters like Dennis Hull, Dryden blends wisdom, humour, and decades of perspective. Recorded at the 2015 Irving Oil Challenge Cup in Halifax‑Dartmouth, this interview offers a thoughtful look at how the sport has changed—and why its emotional core remains exactly the same.
