What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

For Silas, it’s all about the bond with his teammates. He truly sees them as his brothers. He thrives on that sense of family and connection. He also lights up when he hears the crowd cheering during game, fuelling his passion. Whether it’s road trips with his family or celebrating wins with his team, it’s the memories they’re making together that mean the most to him.


Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

Silas looks up to all the greats, Lemieux, Ovechkin, McDavid—their skill, work ethic, and the way they carry themselves on and off the ice really fuel his drive. He doesn’t just want to play like them—he wants to be better. But more than any pro, his biggest inspiration is his dad. He’s the one behind the scenes, driving Silas to early morning practices, cheering from the stands, and putting in the time and effort to help him chase his dream. It’s that steady support that pushes him.


What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

One that really sticks with me is seeing Silas skate over to the goalie during a tough game—not to talk strategy, but just to give him a fist bump and offer a few words of encouragement when the team was down. It was such a simple act, but it showed so much heart. And then there's the time he scored the game-winning goal with just seconds left on the clock. He didn’t soak in the moment alone, he immediately turned to celebrate with his teammates.
