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.

Today was the first day of the Under Armour Hockey Showcase at DU. We had a practice today with another team, which was fun, but honestly I felt a little rusty. Ok a lot rusty. It's been a while since I skated like that because the ice has been out up in Vail. Anyway I think a lot of people were rusty because I was one of the better ones on the ice today. My coach from New Mexico is my assigned coach for the weekend and it was good to see him. Something pretty funny happened on the ice: I fell and flew into the boards on an overspeed drill and almost nailed my coach. We both laughed about it. He said, "Who says coaching's not a contact sport?" and I said, "Almost gotcha," because he had joked about making me a scratch this weekend during the showcase, which is something that happened too often this year when I was in New Mexico.
