Not every hockey story is about goals, contracts, or highlights.
Some stories are about process.
About how habits form.
About what gets passed down in rinks, locker rooms, and quiet moments after practice.
This is one of those conversations.
In this oral-history interview, Scott Harrington reflects on his path through the game—from minor hockey in Kingston, to junior hockey with the London Knights, to the NHL, Europe, and his current role as a veteran in the American Hockey League.
This is not a produced feature.
It’s not a highlight package.
It’s a full, uncut conversation.
Scott talks about early skating advantages, growing up in a strong hockey community, learning under demanding but fair coaches, and what it really means to become an “everyday professional.” He shares how watching elite players prepare shaped his own approach, why development requires patience, and how knowledge gets passed from one generation of players to the next.
These conversations are part of the ongoing HockeyDocs oral-history archive. They’re shared publicly as-is, and they also serve as source material for future long-form books and documentary projects.
If you care about how hockey players are shaped over time—rather than just how they’re judged on game night—this conversation is for you.
