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 think I had a strong 1st period, a bad 2nd period with a few good plays here and there, and a pretty good 3rd period with one bad mistake. Overall, I think I played well tonight, but to be honest, no one plays well when you lose a critical game like that. Our effort was there, but our brains were not. We need to think better and make smarter decisions. I was pretty careful with the puck tonight: I shot when I could and got the puck to the forwards for the most part, but I also had a few plays where I need to think better, where I would pass a puck off the boards when it should be a direct pass or when I missed an easy ten foot pass in the neutral zone. I just made a few mistakes that didn't cost us, but could've cost us, and I'd like to eliminate those.
