My name is Connor Tedstrom. I played high school hockey in Colorado for 4 years, and during my senior year, I decided I wanted to pursue playing junior hockey and Division I college hockey. This is the story of going from Colorado High School Hockey to junior hockey from my perspective: my thoughts, experiences, and lessons learned along the way.

Home for the Holidays

I got home yesterday morning. I drove from Rio Rancho and stayed a night in Buena Vista because it started snowing on me. It feels great to be home. I love seeing my family and just being home. It's nice to get away from the stresses of junior hockey for a bit. But I think I'm going to miss it too. I pulled into Edwards yesterday and had this weird feeling, like I didn't belong here anymore, like I didn't know what to do with myself without playing hockey every day. But that feeling went away pretty quick when I saw my family and friends. I can't really express how good it feels to be home after being away for so long. I've lived in a few different homes already this year, and I've been on the road for countless hours, so it feels amazing to be back at home for the holidays, with family and friends.
