Leaves are changing. Seasons shifting. Now’s the moment to decide.
You can feel it in the air.
The mornings are colder. The nights are longer. The death of summer only means one thing: proving time.
Did you put in the work?
Did you hit the driveway, the gym, the ice?
Or were you just a spectator — watching from the sidelines, letting the days slip away?
Because here’s the truth:
The season is here. And there’s nowhere to hide.
For the Warriors Who Went All In
If you emptied yourself this summer, don’t change a thing.
Carry that momentum into the rink. Into tryouts. Into the battles ahead. Every rep you stacked, every hour you spent, every bead of sweat shed on the driveway — it’s about to pay off.
Keep that same savage pace. Stay locked in.
For the Ones Feeling the Guilt
If you didn’t put in the work… own it.
This isn’t the time for excuses. This is the time for action.
You might have to grind twice as hard to catch up — and that’s not a punishment. That’s the standard. That’s the pace required to rise to the next level.
Take this moment. Right now.
Draw the line in the sand and decide:
You’re not going to drift another season. You’re going to fight for this.
A New Leaf
The leaves are changing.
That’s not just nature doing its thing — that’s a reminder. A metaphor.
This is the season to turn over a new leaf in your hockey journey. Whether you prepared like a warrior or coasted through the summer, you have one choice today:
Be all in.
On the driveway.
In the gym.
On the ice.
And most importantly — in your mind and in your heart.
Talk time is over.
It’s time to bring it.
