Honestly, I don't if my player Philipp Winter would be the right person to give such an inspirational speech - not because he isn't good with words, but because his backstory isn't particularly inspirational. Coming from a family of hockey players who were well off financially, Philipp didn't face a lot of adversity on his path to become a professional hockey player. Sure, he still had to work hard and has some lessons to teach on how to be a successful athletes, but there simply are other players out there who made more out of much less who can probably give a way more inspiring talk to some young kids who are trying to scrape together the money for their first pair of skates or who are struggling to get into a team. On top of that, Philipp had to change schools a few times as a kid due to his fathers job and his own junior career, so there actually isn't really such a thing as "the one high school" where he spent most of his childhood and learned a ton. That doesn't mean that he won't be happy to come speak at one of his former schools though if invited back, even if his path to the SHL wasn't as hard as that of some others, Philipp still has some good stories to tell and advice to give...
