From Newfoundland to the NCAA: Coach Shayne Morrissey on Hockey Culture, Youth Sports & Growing 1494 Hockey Club

Get ready for a deep dive into the world of youth hockey with former pro player and current coach Shayne Morrissey. Kevin and Jamie sit down with “Hockey Shayne” to talk about everything from growing up in Canada’s hockey hotbed to balancing coaching responsibilities across all age levels—from tiny mites to college athletes.
They also tackle the realities of modern youth sports: the emotional investment of parents, the rise of year-round training, and the fine line between passion and pressure. Plus, Shayne gives a behind-the-scenes look at how he and his wife Grace built 1494 Hockey Club from a two-camp summer experiment into a growing hockey brand with roots in both the U.S. and Canada.
You’ll laugh (trash cans get thrown), you’ll learn (a lot about parenting and coaching), and you’ll leave with a renewed appreciation for the people shaping the next generation of athletes.
🏒 Episode Highlights & Timestamps

🕒 (36:24) – Passion vs. Pressure: When Hockey Isn’t the DreamHow Shayne handles kids who are more “meh” than motivated—and why that’s totally okay.
🕒 (41:33) – Should Kids Play Year-Round?Shayne’s take on burnout, multi-sport athletes, and the real purpose of off-season development.
🕒 (44:54) – The Origin of 1494 Hockey ClubHow a pandemic pause turned into a business launch—and what the numbers 14 and 94 really mean.

🕒 (1:17:42) – What’s Next for 1494 Hockey ClubNew Canadian camps, a rebrand, and Shayne’s vision for expanding the impact of 1494 Hockey.
✔ Key Takeaways
Coaching isn’t just about hockey. It’s about life skills, resilience, and learning how to be part of a team.
Spring hockey = opportunity, not obligation. With the right balance, kids can love hockey and be kids.
Parents: It’s okay to breathe. Your kid might not go pro, but they’ll gain confidence, friendship, and unforgettable memories.
Referees are learning too. Behind every call is a human being (sometimes a teen!) doing their best.
Family culture matters. Programs like 1494 thrive because they care just as much about off-ice experience as they do about on-ice performance.

Florida Adventures & Hockey Dreams: From The Villages to Triple-A Tryouts

Buckle up for a fun catch-up session as Kevin and Jamie share their latest adventures, from exploring "Florida's Favorite Hometown" to navigating the wild world of youth hockey tryouts. This father-daughter duo kicks things off with some relatable back pain stories (getting older is no joke, folks!) before diving into Kevin's recent trips to Pensacola's Naval Air Station and The Villages.
Kevin gives us the inside scoop on the retirement community that's basically an adult playground—complete with daily happy hours, golf cart culture, and a property system that's more competitive than getting Taylor Swift tickets. Meanwhile, Jamie doesn't hold back about the politics and drama of elite youth hockey, sharing the real deal about what it takes to support a nine-year-old's athletic dreams (spoiler: it's a lot more than just buying equipment).
Whether you're planning your retirement escape, dealing with sports-parent drama, or just enjoy our unfiltered family banter, this episode delivers plenty of laughs, insights, and "holy crap, that's expensive" moments.
Episode Highlights & Timestamps
🕒 (00:00:54) – Back Pain & Getting Older Kevin and Jamie commiserate about getting older and the joys of not being able to wipe yourself properly (TMI? Too bad!).
🕒 (05:55:54) – Blue Angels & Aviation Tales Kevin geeks out about his visit to the Naval Air Station and almost confuses his fighter jets (F-14? F-16? Who's counting?).
🕒 (10:37:14) – The Villages: Where Retirement Gets Rowdy Inside Florida's famous adult playground—where the music starts at 3 and happy hour never really ends.
🕒 (19:26:38) – Real Estate Hunger Games Kevin breaks down The Villages' property lottery system that has retirees competing for the best golf course views.

🕒 (47:08:22) – "Just Take the Shot, Kid!" The challenges of helping young athletes get out of their heads and play with confidence.
Key Takeaways
✔ Retirement isn't what it used to be. The Villages is basically a non-stop party with golf carts, live music, and "happy hour since two."
✔ Youth sports are a wild ride. Beyond the hefty price tag (we're talking $5,000+ for six months!), there's drama, politics, and enough tension to fill a hockey arena.
✔ Sometimes you gotta speak up. As Jamie puts it, "I'm a 43-year-old mother. I'm allowed to do whatever the f*** I want to do for my child, period."
✔ It's all in your head (sometimes). The biggest challenge for young athletes isn't always skill—it's having the confidence to take risks and not freak out about making mistakes.
✔ Family connections matter. Even with a thousand miles between them, Kevin and Jamie's bond shows that good conversation (and a little hockey talk) keeps relationships strong.
