After a long and fruitful career playing in the National Hockey League, Chris Joseph settled down in St. Albert, Alberta. He continued with hockey by way of teaching at various hockey schools and academies before deciding to open his own hockey school in 2009.
“I felt a need for a hockey school in my hometown,” Chris says. “I thought it would be fun to make a hockey school and give back to the game that has given me so much.” On top of teaching at the school, Chris coaches the midget AA St. Albert Blues, and is a helping coach for the St. Albert Bolt peewee hockey team.
Chris has also been an Edmonton firefighter since 2007 and teaches at the firefighter training school to help them keep their skills sharp. “I really enjoy the teaching and the coaching. I’ve been doing things like this since I started when I was young, so I wanted to continue. Oddly, I seem to be busier now than when I was playing in the NHL.”
