From the NHL to Australia Hockey | A Day with Ty Wishart

[@TheGammingPie]

This Guy lived the Ultimate dream. being a first round pick playing in the show and now playing all over

[@RobertGreeley]

It’s quite the life! A great journey

[@ryanlach9369]

Man this just made me so Nostalgic. I used to watch Ty when he played for the PG Cougars in his whl days. We had a pretty good run when he played for us

[@notachefmack]

Great Video, recently moved from the Comox Valley and played on a beer league team with Ty's dad, Tony. We coached together and became quite close over the 10+ years I lived in Ty's hometown. Spent one night listening to Tony talk about Ty's journey through hockey. We were lucky enough to have both Ty and his twin Tia come out for a skate in one of our beer league games. Ty didn't take a single stride, just C cuts and was still the fastest on the ice. He sent me a backhand sauce pass through traffic that was spinning so hard it flew off my blade like a frisbee....Even though Ty's NHL career didn't quite work out (I mean, the guy still played some games in the Show!) You can see the skill required and could tell he was a cut above us average joe's. Having been around Ty a handful of times, it was pretty cool to see how friendly and humble he is, there was no ego or chip on his shoulder....he comes from good people, so that isn't much of a surprise!

[@RobertGreeley]

Love this thanks for sharing!

[@beerdo]

love seeing how much the sport has grown, and the respect Australia has for our athletes by inviting them to represent their franchises

[@RobertGreeley]

100% just wait for our next videos in South Africa showcasing ice hockey down here!

[@NovelteaCorner]

What a great video. As a Mustangs fan, Ty (and his family) come across as just lovely people. 🧡🖤🧡🖤

[@RobertGreeley]

Couldn't agree more!

[@HoCkEyLeGeNd588]

Your videos are amazing man! As a lifelong player it is such a joy seeing stories like this. This sport is so massive. Thank you for sharing so many perspectives of the game around the world!

[@RobertGreeley]

Thanks for watching! Glad you're enjoying them!

[@ItsBugsy]

Beautiful video again Robert

[@RobertGreeley]

Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed!

[@nosau]

Amazing video. I don't follow hocky at all but I still really appreciate how much effort and quality goes into these videos. Keep up the good work Rob.

[@RobertGreeley]

Thanks so much for the kind words! Really appreciate it!

[@stephengiannone5449]

Looks like a nice rink they got there. Love seeing the game grow all over the world.

[@RobertGreeley]

It's impressive!

[@Jaclyn1986]

Another awesome video! What a high level production. I appreciate the work and planning and editing that goes into this. Fantastic stuff!!!

[@RobertGreeley]

@@Jaclyn1986 appreciate the kind words!! Thank you so much!

[@Tahaiga]

Oh I saw you filming this! I am a volunteer with the Stangs and was very curious about it. Fantastic video, Ty is such a nice bloke!

[@RobertGreeley]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@shaggyirl]

It’s great to see this video I volunteer with the mustangs and it’s great interacting with the players when they come in I’d love to see more videos of the rest of the team and coaches and maybe the volunteer set up/tear down and what goes on behind the scenes

[@RobertGreeley]

@@shaggyirl glad you enjoyed the video! Unfortunately I was only in Melbourne for 4 days so we could only fit in so much!

[@Timran]

What a top tier bloke, great video!

[@RobertGreeley]

@@Timran thank you!

[@daledoback69]

Another great video man - super impressive. Ty seems like a great guy and incredible family man living the dream across the globe. Wishing him and his family the very best!

[@RobertGreeley]

Thanks for watching!

[@sevelo321]

Great production Robert! Waaay better than anything on NHL Network!

[@RobertGreeley]

Thank you so much! Really appreciate the kind words!

[@rerooar]

Wow just so cool to see how hockey has grown in Aus. I did a little Australian hockey tour in 2007 which included a Melbourne Ice game in the old small rink in Oakleigh with maybe max 20 people in attendance, I have to say it was terrible, and in only 17 years there is ex NHL talent playing to hundreds of people, awesome. I have been following the effort put in by people over there to grow the game and I wish we had even half the brains and work ethic of the people behind the AIHL, running hockey in here in Denmark.

[@RobertGreeley]

Thanks for the insight!

[@shadowgaming6388]

Keep killing it Robert🔥

[@RobertGreeley]

@@shadowgaming6388 thank you!! Appreciate the continued support!

[@thisisdoogie]

Great video mate! I am hoping to work with the Mustangs next season on a project. Been a fan of the club since 2010.

[@RobertGreeley]

Good luck with your project!

[@YNWAJFT96]

So glad he's a Mustang, legend Ty

[@RobertGreeley]

Indeed!

[@JasondenHollander-qj5hp]

Awesome vid mate. Could have passed as an nhl background vid like the leafs blueprint episode. U captured Ty so well.

[@RobertGreeley]

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed!

[@aussiekid3588]

I wish so badly that the capacity at Ice and Stangs games could be higher. So our game could grow and there would be room for growth in the fan base. Hopefully something is planned fkr Australian Hockey to grow 😊😊

[@RobertGreeley]

I think it’ll get there!

[@klaas7991]

Cool video!:) Always nice to see how down to earth hockey players are! Do you know in which months the Australian Hockey season is on?🤔

[@RobertGreeley]

Thank you! The AIHL runs from April to end of August typically!

[@Jedda666]

Great video, Robert! What I've always wondered about the AIHL is what the salaries are like? Upon googling I get a bit of mixed answers. Is it just imports that get paid and how much are they generally making in such a league if so?

[@svnn3657]

the league isn't classified as "pro" but semi-pro, so players will get all living expenses paid for with no extra pay, so around $20,000-$35,000

[@RobertGreeley]

Mainly teams will help import players with their expenses and set some up with a job at the club aside from being a player! But it’s very case by case!

[@DrKeter_]

we won the battle but lost the war with this game😭

[@RobertGreeley]

Tough break for sure!

[@Issacakmye]

W video

[@RobertGreeley]

Thank you!

[@timothyreebjr5826]

Is that a buffalo sabres shirt :) ?

[@timothyreebjr5826]

[@RobertGreeley]

Yeah! My buddy Jack plays there - throwback to this video we did together: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHvNfGOImLl5hZYsi=7K4Nb4fZ1pZg8iO7

@@RobertGreeleynbd just one of the Sabres best young players. So awesome. I was born and raised north of Buffalo about 25 mins from the Canadian border. Big hockey fan and even bigger Sabres fan. Love your content and the way you’re sharing these unique stories. Wish you all the best!

[@RobertGreeley]

@@TimothyReeb-zl2of much appreciated!

[@cenaboyle]

What happened to the NHl career?

[@RobertGreeley]

From 2008 to 2013 he played 20 NHL games and 326 in the AHL!

[@Kevin-bq8cq]

He was a massive bust.

[@DC-wt8bw]

Patrik Laine to Montreal Canadiens?

[@RobertGreeley]

Done deal!

[@Boobbazzz0006]

Awesome content as always! Love the behind the scenes aspect and the life outside hockey. Keep them coming

[@RobertGreeley]

Thanks! Will do!
