    EPISODE 3: “THE PARENTS WHO THINK THEY OWN THE GAME” - - The 10-Part Mini-Series: The People Who Are Killing Minor Hockey

    EPISODE 2: “THE COACHES LEFT OUT TO DRY” - The 10-Part Mini-Series: The People Who Are Killing Minor Hockey

    And here’s the question. WHO’S GOT THE COACH’S BACK? Because coaches are expected to teach, lead, motivate, discipline, communicate, develop talent, and win games. They’re expected to keep players happy and parents satisfied. But the moment a decision upsets somebody, the complaints can start.

    WHEN HOCKEY WAS EARNED - SPECIAL EPISODE

    From House League to AAA: What Happened to Minor Hockey? There was a time when hockey was about hard work, earning your place, respecting the game, and developing as a player. Today, too many adults have lost sight of what minor hockey is supposed to be about. After decades behind the bench, Suitcase Ace Bailey delivers an honest, hard-hitting look at how the game has changed, what we’ve lost along the way, and why it’s time to put the focus back where it belongs — on the players. The game hasn’t forgotten its roots. Too many people running it have.

    THE PARENT WHO COULDN’T LET IT GO

    Episode 9 should feel like the second to last gut punch of the series. The theme is that some parents don’t just struggle with a decision—they carry it with them, replay it, and sometimes make the child carry it too.

    It Was Never About the Ice Time

    Episode 8 is where we get underneath the argument. “It Was Never About the Ice Time” is really about expectations, comparison, entitlement, and sometimes a parent’s own disappointment being placed on the kid.

    WHEN THE LOCKER ROOM CHANGES

    Episode 7 is a big one because the locker room can change long before the adults realize something is wrong. This one should feel personal, serious, and hard-hitting.
