Episode 134 – Mark Mowers: From the NHL to Giving Back This week on the 1973
Podcast, we sit down with former NHL forward Mark Mowers, whose journey from undrafted college player to skating alongside legends like Steve Yzerman and Nicklas Lidström is nothing short of inspiring. Mark takes us through the highs and lows of his career with the Predators, Red Wings, Bruins, and Ducks, and shares incredible behind-the-scenes stories from his time in the NHL and overseas in Europe. From his first “welcome to the NHL” moment to his transition into scouting and player development, Mark gives us a fascinating inside look at life in professional hockey. But this episode goes beyond the ice. Mark is dedicated to making a difference in the lives of others through organizations like the Warrior for Life Fund, which supports active duty, retired, and veteran service members through the healing power of sports. Here’s how you can help: Check out this book Sticks Paws and Pucks on Amazon that’s close to Mark’s heart — every purchase makes an impact. Visit Warrior for Life Fund https://warriorforlifefund.org to learn how you can support veterans and their families. Whether you’re a die-hard hockey fan or someone who loves stories of perseverance and purpose, this episode is packed with unforgettable moments you won’t want to miss.
