Join host John Duffin in this hard-hitting episode of Your Message Received as he connects with former NHL tough guy Tyson Nash. Tyson spills the beans on his journey from being the most hated player in the NHL to finding success and fun in unexpected places.

Get ready for stories about life as an agitator in hockey, wild minor league bus rides, to a great career in the NHL, to the crazy experience of an American playing in Japan.

Tyson opens up about the shock of hitting rock bottom financially, battling dark times, and how his family's support pulled him through. Learn how "Nasher" reinvented himself by diving into a hot, new business opportunity.

In addition, the NHL broadcast booth was calling, Tyson also became the long time on-air commentator-with the Arizona Coyotes. This experience also was a mixed blessing, as his beloved Arizona franchise was sold- and the team relocated to Utah.


Now, Tyson is shaking things up again with his new show, the "Nash Cast", for the first year Utah Hockey Club franchise. Think Peyton and Eli's Monday Night Football, for the NHL. It's a rollercoaster of grit, humor, and triumph you won't want to miss. I'm very grateful to know Tyson Nash. I was privileged to have a front row seat-when Tyson shared his powerful story at the home of my High Performance Coach- and former NHL player-Dave Scatchard. Tyson Nash is the real deal, and a wonderful man to boot.
