Ryan Straschnitzki, Ryan Russell, Steve Campbell, Aaron Dell and Dana Tyrell all share a love for hockey and roots in the Airdrie Minor Hockey Association.
In this mini-series with AMHA alumni, they share glimpses into their story, because the passion ignited at the Ron Ebbesen and Plainsmen Arenas when they were kids is still there, and they want to inspire local kids today.
Today we chat with Ryan Russell and Steve Campbell.
This the airdrielife podcast. Here we take you beyond the pages of airdrielife magazine.
Our goal is to share stories with locals in and around Airdrie about extraordinary people who call this city home. Myself and my journalist colleagues meet all kinds of fun, interesting people we get to write about. This podcast is an exclusive opportunity where you too can learn more about your fantastic neighbours.
Ryan and Steve are cheerful reminders of the heart of hockey. I hope they made you smile, too.
