Episode 43: Petri Vehanen

Finnish Legend Petri Vehanen joined the prohockeypod this week. Petri and I work together with the Adler Mannheim and I have got to know him well. Petri was a late bloomer who’s mindset was simple: work hard everyday. It ended up paying off as he went on to play 20 years professionally, win a KHL Championship, Gold Medal for Finland at the 2011 World Championships and lastly, had his number retired by Lukko Rauma. He had quite the run and now is sharing his knowledge to the goalie’s in Mannheim. It is very inspirational to see everything he achieved. If you like underdog stories then this episode is for you. Hope you enjoy!
