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.

I played well the past two nights. I didn't do anything flashy, but I think, for the most part, I did my job. Of course I still made some small mistakes; everyone does. I think, though, that I'm really learning how to think, not just play and hope I'm doing something right. I'm learning to think and make decisions for different situations that occur in any game. To be a good defenseman, you don't have to be flashy or rack up the points even though everyone likes to get points. It's all about decision making, taking care of the puck, and getting the puck to the forwards. And I'm learning that and doing better with it every game. One thing that I've realized is my footwork and quickness is probably my biggest weakness.
