PHPA Executive Director Brian Ramsay and members of the hockey operations staff — Matt Salewski, Joe Colasurdo, and Emma Harvey — hit the road this week to kick off the 2025 Members Meetings tour.
Over the next several weeks, the PHPA team will travel across North America, visiting each American Hockey League (AHL) and ECHL team and meeting directly with players.
These in-person meetings provide a valuable opportunity for members to hear updates on key initiatives, discuss issues that affect their careers and livelihoods, and share feedback with their Association.
During the PHPA Annual Meetings, Executive Director Brian Ramsay surprised Bert Villarini by naming him the latest recipient of the Curt Leichner Distinguished Member Award.
