🔥 Hot Stove Chat with Terry Ryan · Oct 20
Eighth overall pick. Eight NHL games. One of the great second acts in Newfoundland and Labrador. 🏒
Terry Ryan grew up in Mount Pearl, scored 50 goals in a single WHL season, and went 8th overall to the Montreal Canadiens in 1995. Injuries closed the NHL door early. So he kept swinging — two international ball hockey golds for Canada, a memoir (Tales of a First-Round Nothing), roles in Letterkenny, Shoresy, Republic of Doyle and Frontier, and a podcast of his own.
This Small Business Week, Terry sits down with the Business Association of Newfoundland and Labrador for a hot stove chat: starting over, betting on yourself, and building a name from scratch. Straight talk for anyone out there every day, grinding and taking big swings at their dreams.
🗓️Tuesday, October 20 · Doors open @ 11:45 AM, The Loose Tie, 14 George Street, St. John's
Members, guests and anyone curious about BANL — all welcome.
