can the make a wish foundation just grant this guys wish already
Where’s John Cena when you need him?!?! He’s granted the most wishes so if anyone can do it it’ll be him
Bro, if you ever get another minor league team: stop complaining about the coaches and for the love of shit, change your f*n promo code.
Honestly some of those crease movements on ice in Winnipeg reminds me of Uncle Rico in Napoleon Dynamite.
nuh uh
Defined his self right to a rental car ride back to 🇨🇦
notreally a suprise to most of us just a matter of time. long time fans have been just waiting for these vids eventually
Hey man, I've made fun of you in the past with all the pro talk, but I keep tuning in because I'm interested in your journey. Regardless of how this goes, you've managed to create a brand for yourself, and that is impressive. Chin up, man. The journey continues.
Somehow always get guilted into watching his shit in the fall. Then by December, complete let down. Especially this season, Watertown with plenty of D1 NCAA programs nearby. If TRav can’t finish a season there, he truly does suck.
@@user-zt1fo7cs2x I know I'm speaking about Travis as if he's not here, but I'm not sure I agree that he sucks. I play hockey, but I'm not a goalie analyst. Just based on what I see, he seems to be pretty good. Think of the countless hours he says he put into achieving his goal of playing professional hockey. I dunno -- to me he does not look out of place. I'm wondering if the whole UA-cam thing is a distraction for egotistical coaches and players. Maybe his personality doesn't rub off well among his colleagues. Maybe they think he's an asshole. Who knows? I have no idea if I'm right, and I hope I'm wrong. I'm just throwing it out there.
Bud, you’re pretty worked up. But let’s set it straight. I used your comment to get folks to realize what we’re watching isn’t a pro. Every single year this adult traps us into thinking he’s gonna have a breakout season, only to leave us dry before he finishes a season. Views. Work hard, tough mindset, things will work out. When in reality Trav just don’t have the skills. That’s fine, I appreciate the grit. Frankly, that’s the mindset of a champion. Any coach or teammate that is scared of that is dust. Want me to name 6 studs in the league who’s only difference is actual skill? Trav is upfront about filming for content, doesn’t party, and gets to fuckin work. Even in Watertown, a city that only exists because of a military base. I COMMEND THAT WORK ETHIC. Bro just ain’t got it and that’s okay. I’d rather see him do content with current players like others have suggested. Also, Pat Shea, give up the beans. Boston ain’t calling, have a pitcher at Pat’s Pizza.
@@user-zt1fo7cs2x Fr, I don’t know why he just doesn’t go back to Sweden. He could get more ice time and actually play.
Where does "asses in seats" translate from 100K YT subscribers to Mississippi? No offense Trav, but I don't think hockey fans in that part of America are driving hours to come see you play.
Maybe don’t shave your paddle down, just focus on stopping pucks on your next gig. Or make your own beer league team where you start every game.
nah he’s gotta start using those warrior twigs they give him
Why doesn’t he just play for his local men’s league team and just vlog that lol
That means he needs to get a job, and do this for "fun" like most of us do.
winnipeg rent a goalie pays just as well as the fed
@@xmohawkx985 But, it really isn't pro at the end of the day. I have made more officiating an evening or an afternoon of kids and mens league games in between playing, than he makes in a few weeks being "pro", and I certainly don't call that pro either lol
As the shot is coming, you're always dropping down with your stick, making it easy to score on high shots
Trav, hang in there if that's truly what you love, a real pro does not quit.
Your teams left you hanging, you did alright in all those games, next time be great.
A real pro doesn’t quit ? What an idiotic thing to say
Well at least I am finally caught up with your hockey life
Why would a team sign him to get asses in the seats, a former pro player would do that, not a UA-cam goalie hack, my god, i can’t believe what is coming out of this guys mouth
Seeing you work with the coach was awesome. Helpful for me too
TRAV, YOU ARE A SKILLED MEDIA GUY, THERE YOU HAVE TALENT... YOU DO NOT HAVE THE SKILL TO PLAY PRO HOCKEY.... IF YOU LOOK AT THE FPHL, IT IS NOT EVEN FORMER D1 HOCKEY PLAYERS.... SO IF YOU CAN NOT PLAY AT THAT MARGINAL LEVEL AFETR ALL THIS TRAINING, YOU DO NOT WHAT IT TAKES TO MAKE IT AT ANY PRO LEVEL... THIS FOLLOW MY DREAM STUFF, IS JUST WARM AND FUZZY NONSENSE... LOOK IN THE MIRROR, GET INTO THE MEDIA END OF HOCKEY.... I AM SURE THERE IS SOMETHING THERE FOR YOU.. IF YOU HAD PUT THE EFFORT INTO GETTING INTO HOCKEY MEDIA, YOU WOULD BE DOING MUCH BETTER.... IT IS TIME TO FACE REALITY....
he is delusional. Just look at the way he talks and the pictures he posts. Hes a legit sociopath. He will delete my message again. In the last 7 years he started below 10 games. Ive always said I wouldnt look down at players playing in a lower level. We are all hockey players and thats fine. But this guy is legit delusional and deserves to be called out.
His problem is he never had a plan B in the event his "career" didn't pan out... Like dude how long are u gonna try to scrape by, dude just get a job and build up a decent life
i've always wondered if he comes from a rich background. he has some entertaining videos but i cant help but wonder if trav's parents will sit him down and say it's time to move on.. being in your late 20s, you need to focus on the long term future.. these guys in these glorified beer leagues just cant accept reality.i'll be disappointed if this is the end of your vlogs since he does have editing and entertainment skills.
@@natedoggna1101
Plan b? You are watching his plan b. Clearly he has talent in vlog and video, plus a good voice.... Not sure why him chasing playing pro hockey at any level causes so much hate. I suspect some people just can't let others enjoy themselves. It's not Iike he's hurting anyone. Keep chasing and stay positive 👍
@@denisfrenchforwin lol if his plan B involves him having to sleep in his car because he can't afford a hotel or stealing pop so he can afford guac on his chipotles, then he needs a plan c
Keep your head up Trav
I’m back to watching your videos and I’m excited to watch em like I used to. Wither or not hockey is in your future your entertaining and make good content. Goodluck in the new year with whatever u do! 👍
You have a talent for vlogging about the everydays of hockey pros. Why not continue with that but with other players?
Not a bad idea. That would be so cool!!
100% every hockey player would watch that
You gave us inside look at the FPHL why not continue and do all the leagues showing the difference between leagues, team locations, financial etc
no one’s gonna give up on their dream even if that dream never comes true the feeling and the love he has doing so is never gna change so why stop pursuing his dream for something he just enjoys on the side ?
@@twitterbfThis is not reality. There is a point where you have to put the dream aside and actually worry about your future. The dude already has skin in the game. Take advantage of it. The dude is a mediocre (if that) goalie. Hang up the pads.
Trav, thanks for sharing your hockey and rehab journey. As a goalie for 50 years, I have enjoyed your story, shown from the ice perspective i know best. I still want to buy one of your former used team jerseys. When you are ready!
You should define how to stop a puck to give your team a chance to win.
Whatever you decide to do trav you definitely have a future in media if you want to. You could go around the league and interview goalies, call it "tendy talk" and do your thing. I truly believe you could be a media marketing director for any of these clubs with the way you do your videos an the interactions. I think you'd kill it but I'm also not about to tell you to stop playing, you gotta do what's best for you but if I'm going to say anything it's you have some options for sure. Keep up the positivity and keep grinding towards your goal cheif.
Dude what are you suggesting? Like he’s too bad to keep playing pro so follow pro guys around spying on their days because he can’t do it for his own content? Just creepy and kinda pathetic
@user-zk8gy6iv7z nah I just think he's good with the camera and he's good at getting people to talk and come out of their shell. So I think he could have a media career after he's done playing if he wanted to
Maybe complaining about the coaches on a vlog that they can see isn’t the best idea with team after team. Even if this is the end of ur hockey career, you pushed until there wasn’t another option left which is more that you can say about most guys that dream of playing pro. Keep ur head up, work on ur game more than the channel if u get another opportunity.
Ty Trav!
We can’t always get what we want. But if we try sometimes, we just might find, we get what we need.
Besides teams, how many goalie coaches has this guy had? Goes through teams, coaches, probably women too, like they're nothing, god.
Well, the further he slides down, the less he can afford to pay. So got to switch it up. If he moves back to Vancouver again, then he will have no money as it is expensive compared to Winnipeg.
Love me some evolution hockey. My son's in their spring and fall programs. He always has fun.
I guess nothing defines this guy, but unfortunately your stats do define how you played, you may not want to accept that but at some point your history defines you. Good thing you worked out your upper body in the gym before you left town, so silly
It’s been silent on the Trav front, maybe he is working hard on his bench press and eating McDonald’s the entire holidays in preparation to getting a call from a “Kinda Pro” League where he can further “Define Himself” and be the tallest goalie that puts “Butts in the Seats” for the team that he will play 2 games for and then get cut, just waiting to see the pattern start over again
You can now pay $50 for goaltending advice.
Sounds like the Grifting has started since the Pro Goalie story can no longer be used, not does grifting “Define You”, probably not, but money does
Starting to feel like these teams are all in on it. Sign the guy for a little get some views for the team and league and bounce him to the next team. Feel for the guy
I mean if he could stop the puck he'd probably still be on the team
Oh man, I wish it could have worked out for you in Florida. Good luck. Maybe 2024 brings new and better things.
Sux Trav, I feel your pain, I got cut 1 Dec, offered a new gig last Wednesday, start 31 Jan.
You’re on one hell of a journey! Great vid! 😎
Trav, were you wearing one of those Manta Sleeps you’re pimping in you last start with the sea wolves?
OK, that made me laugh
keep grinding
Well, welcome back home Trav. Might have been a short journey in Mississippi but other opportunities will come. Looking forward to see what happens next, keep it up buddy !
Did I get it right that now after being released, you went from 2x skate per day to 1 skate per week or was that just for the travwl week? Gonna br long days for waiting the skate 😢
Skating once a week aint gonna get you anywhere lol
Trav I love your videos and when you retire someday you should do gear reviews it would be awesome
If he would spend as much time as he does working out and instead trains his flexibility he would be so much better
Well welcome back to Winnipeg Trav I wish u luck with who ever picks u up next for there team it part of FHL it's not about how u did they just had to make hard choice thing's happen
I am praying for you get a new team to play
I really enjoyed the sweden vids! Go back!
Trav, I was taught to keep my stick square to the ice, rebounds in the net are not going to make for a good day. However, I notice so many other goalies keep their sticks at an angle, suggestions?
They are angled because the paddle is too short to use properly when standing. Goalies don't need them to be standing anymore because of the butterfly, so when you measure for a paddle is should be in your butterfly with pads and knee pads on so your stick is square while down.
@@aydeneklund2288 Thank you!
@@BB12659 no problem 😊
Trav you can choose to end it on a positive note, playing pro in NA. Now you can choose to invest in yourself...Only invest what you can afford to hold forever, start small and scale up.
Good luck Trav.
Keep your head up dude! It’s just business as you know. And if you’re considering getting out of the game as a player, there’s a ton of other opportunities with your experience that can lead to a lot of other things to do in hockey.
I was “smart” enough to join the Marine Corps when I stopped playing and coaching. You look smarter than me though so you should avoid that mistake without me saying anything. 😂😂
If I were you though, I’d keep pushing until I couldn’t play anymore! Anything can happen in this game. Be patient and keep pushing forward bro. 👍
The journey was amazing. Working with the coach you looked a little faster. Keep working on your dream my friend.
“Ned, I would love to stand here and talk with you-but I’m not going to.”
Sorry to hear about the bad luck, but keep doing what you do and dont mind the couch warrior haters. One thing ive noticed in your play is your speed going down and up. I might be just your size that makes it look slower. But my question is how much do you work on explosive strength in your legs?
Agreed. Even his butterfly pushes side to side are so painfully weak and slow. Zero explosiveness. His fundamentals aren't bad and he's a solid puck handler but I don't see him making it in these high levels.
The minute that pick hits your glove you gotta squeeze it shut trav
At least the team covered rental car
Only you have the power to decide what this means for your career. Don't end a chapter of a story because everyone wants you to wrap it up. Finish however you want.
Come play senior in Manitoba
This made my day
Maybe get a helmet wrap instead of airbrushing your next bucket.
Also nice little travel vlog. You've covered trains, planes and automobiles. Time for a Boat vlog
Been meaning to drive over too Biloxi and watch a game there is a lot of rumblings that the Mobile Mysticks are going to come back I'm holding out hope !
never know. Thanks for watching man
Sad to hear this news buddy…
Trav it’s over buddy. Hang up your skates , get a job in media and go that way. As far as hockey goes it’s been said a million times, you are just not good enough. It’s tough to accept but getting cut from the bottom of the barrel , literally, league is not by chance. It’s cause you can’t keep up. Love the videos and hope to see you doing what’s best for you, not this madness hockey “career” you’re in
I hope you find a team Trav! Sometimes the lows are right before the highs.
My wife is from St.Peters 20 minutes west of st.louis
Your suitcase never gets unpacked 😂
hey trav, what chest protector are you using
Hyperlite 2 with Mach arms I’m pretty sure he has a video on it too
Not suprised 😅
Done
"More depth,more depth"...goes deeper into the net til the stick is on the goal line
once finally hang up the skates become a social media manager you make some really good vids
Ya, play might not be his strength, but he has the passion and charisma to transition into another career in the industry.
Trav sorry to hear about this but you have probably seen more of the highways and truck stops than any other person out there and it's memories that you will enjoy and look back at , but why don't you start a school for goal tending because when it comes to public relations and marketing you are top notch and I think you will be great as a goalie coach
Do teams give you feedback on what you should work on when they release you, or its just "You're cut, see you later"
Does it really matter? It happens all the time. That and not being a starter tells you it isn't the teams, or coaching, but the goalie.
Your cut see u later
@@dopeeboii88 They will usually give you some bullshit like they did with him to make you feel better about it, unless you're a total d bag.
May you land in a league that doesn't pay in beer.
Well bud… just look at it like this… professionally and more than likely financially, you are so much better off than any other player in the fed. Just saying! P.S. that kid in the workout was smoking you 😂
Why did they move that goalie down to take your spot?
STAY STRONG TRAV!!!!!
There Will Be Another Opportunity!
EYES FORWARD TRAV, DON'T LOOK BACK!!!!
Instruct uour agent to consider leagues/teams in Asia and Eastern Europe. RISE TRAV RISE!!!!
Man I think you could build a big hockey podcast if you put a lot of effort into it
Next time you sign with a team we need to get you a new duffle bag 😂 I swear that motor city bag ya got is cursed. I’m blaming all the trades and goals against on the bag from here on out.
Outrageous they don’t cover your departure
Skating once a week?
How fast they make you clear out? Is there a union for FPHL and SPHL?
You need to be like Steve Mckichan and coach. With your experience and vlog talent. You can put together a kick ass goalie coach vlog. Just an idea.
I think to be a goalie coach you need to have experience at a fairly decent level of hockey and have technical background in the position (pro, college, CHL) this guy doesn’t have neither but could coach very young goalies
Thinking out loud Trav. But I think the reason you’re being cut and moved around is because no team wants their goalie to be more focused on a UA-cam channel then the team. I love watching your videos but I think the biggest part of being a goalie is having your head in the game 100% and with UA-cam it’s probably taking up some of that space
Hockey players need a life outside of hockey. There are NHL players doing college courses throughout the season. Theres a lot of down time after an hour practice or an hour game.
they are in-fact NHL players though.@@TheRealReid35
Talent outweighs filming
Pro players go to strip clubs after games lol
No it’s because he’s not playing well
@@TheRealReid35yes but when hes on the ice or dressing room hes thinking of whats a sick shot, angle or place to do commentary. Hes not there 100% at the most important place....the rink
Damn that really sucks man but it is what it is and happy to hear that hockey still doesn’t define you
Keep grinding brotha
Love ya man keep going as hard as you do
Honestly I think you should try a more non conventional country for hockey Spain, Portugal, Latvia, etc
HC Porto Portugal
Try vlogging for an nhl team recording their road trips etc and the players lives
Is that connor hellybuck?
Keep your chin up b'y ❤🤍❤
Trav ! I'm starting a team called the cankerville tooth fairies 🧚 we CAN OFFER 45 BAGS of used paper towel
weird that it was cheaper for them to rent you a car than to just fly you home..
Probably paid for that himself I think.
Didn’t see this coming. Not!
Nice video. Not sure if you heard, your previous co-host Pat Shea got a big concussion in a game last year. He's not in the ECHL this year.
What happens first? Trav hits 100k subs or joins a new team?
let the garage league content continue lol
I hear the Canes need a new goalie .... Love your vlogs mate, I play field hockey in Australia, recovering from an on field injury (a player broke my leg).
I don't know why your saying that, this dude sucks and can barely keep a practice spot. He gave up 10 playing senior.
@@spongebobgamingrblx4634 I’m saying it because I hate the Canes
Lots of complaints
They let anyone with a pulse and hockey experience referee in the NHL now. Go try out for their officiating combine this summer. You should see the pieces of trash they let skate now.
Lmao😂
shit to bad just seen this could of stopped in fargo and crashed or played if you wanted to play beer ice lol
Getting close to that 100k subscriber silver play button! 👍
how did the seawolves manage to hire j-roc as their social media guy?
Sadly being told to put the food back then shipped this is not cool
Just let the man do what he wants ...good goalie not a nhl skill but can still stop pucks so take it easy people..not because your not the best at what you do that you cant still do it
Hey Trav, Oetter got hurt on Friday, I hear they need a cheap backup for Wedgewood in dallas, you game?
THATS THE DUMBEST THING I EVER HEARD...
