Four years ago today, I woke up from surgery and the first words to my neurosurgeon and family were, “I am ready to fight and go to war with this.” The battle continues, the work slowly pays off. Thank you all for the support always!

“There’s areas in life where we choose the journey and there’s areas where the journey chooses us.”
If there’s any episode we’ve done in the 7+ years of our podcast, this one with Jake Thibeault ranks at the top. Be ready to be inspired.
Was an absolute blast sitting down and talking with two great people. Thanks for having me on @HockeyThinkTank !

A quote from Babson HC Jamie Rice (@Ricer18):
“We are thrilled to be able to play Fitchburg State in our opening two games of the 2025-26 season in support of Jake Thibeault ’26, a member of our program. These two games will support Jake in his rehabilitation from his spinal cord injury. Jake, who is from Fitchburg, (and their program and Head Coach Dean Fuller have been a driving force in Jake’s efforts to beat paralysis) is an amazing young man who embodies the best qualities of our program; loyalty, dedication and a NO QUIT attitude.
Jake’s possesses relentless positivity, an immeasurable love of his teammates and courage beyond measure. Our current team would also like to thank former Babson Hockey player Nik Tasiopoulos ’14, for creating and donating our special jerseys. Please come out and support Babson Hockey and Jake in our home opener Saturday November 1st at 4:00 PM at the Babson Skating Center. We will be raising money and donating to the Thomas E. Smith Foundation in support of Jake, and all people who are living with spinal cord injuries.”
