When I was 16 years old I nearly quit playing hockey. I didn’t even get in the line up around 15 games that season out of 60. When I did play, I didn’t see much ice-time. It came to a point that I no longer loved the game I grew up playing. At the same time that I learned to walk, I learned to skate. It was all that I knew, and I was ready to throw it all away.
As a teenager it is easy to fall when you are faced with adversity. Luckily, I had a strong supporting cast including my father who told me to Keep Going. He always believed that I would catch a break and get my opportunity to show the skill that I knew I had. It was just a matter of time.
A few months later one of our top players had a season ending injury. This opened up an opportunity for me to receive more playing time. In the playoffs I was an impactful player and proved my worth. 2 years later I was selected 4th overall in the National Hockey League Draft.
From that point on, I have continued to Keep Going. Embracing all challenges and good times that I am faced with, taking them head on.
Today I am 28 years of age. I have played over 650 regular season NHL games and am one year away from playing in the NHL for a decade.
The next time you think about giving up on your dream, your passion, the countless hours you have dedicated to your craft, no matter how tough and challenging that time may be for you, no matter your age... Think about a 16 year old kid about to give up on his dream of playing in the NHL. With his dad holding that career on by a thread. To just 2 years later that dream coming true. KEEP GOING

Honestly, I thought it was all gone.
My dad got approached online by someone claiming to be a senior financial advisor. The guy seemed super professional and convinced my dad to start trading crypto on this platform he claimed was secure and high-yield. At first, it looked like everything was working—my dad was seeing profits, getting updates, even getting reassured that his money was growing.
But the moment he tried to withdraw his funds, the nightmare started. They told him he had to pay a “commission fee” to access the money. Then, after he paid it, they hit him with a “card activation” fee. That’s when he finally reached out to me, confused and a bit embarrassed. I looked into it and instantly knew it was a scam.
I didn’t want to panic, so I reached out to a friend of mine who’s way more tech-savvy than I am. After explaining the situation, he said, “You need to talk to Cyberpunk Programmers. They help people recover funds from this kind of stuff.”
I got in touch with the team at Cyberpunk Programmers, and they immediately took action. They told us to keep up communication with the scammers while they traced everything on their end. What blew me away was how fast they worked. In less than 8 hours, they had tracked the scam, infiltrated their system, and recovered the entire amount.
My dad had sent them a total of $437,000. Every single dollar was recovered.
I can’t thank Cyberpunk Programmers enough. If someone you love falls into a similar trap, don’t wait, don’t stay quiet, and definitely don’t feel ashamed. This stuff is designed to fool even the most careful people. Just know—there are people out there who can actually help. Cyberpunk Programmers is one of them.
