Blue Jackets assistant coach Kenny McCudden has built a career working with people of all ages to improve their hockey skills and skating technique. His work is something he loves. And he’s found a unique and special way to fill his life with that passion off the ice through a collection of over 300 skates that date from recent history to hundreds of years ago.
“I’m a collector and skates are my work, that and the fascination of skating,” McCudden said. “The day I stop skating is going to be a very sad day because every time you step on the ice you feel like a kid. A day on skates is a wonderful day.”
