In segment one we visit with Bill Guerin and his beginnings in hockey in Springfield MA. His mom was looking for some activity to get him involved with since he was very active. He was only three years old and his passion was instant when he started skating. Fell in love with playing hockey in the house leagues when he was six years old. Bill developed great friendships when he was playing on his first travel team at 10 years old. 

As he moved up in hockey he made the Springfield Olympics and the coach Gary Dineen changed his life. He played four years for the "Pic's" and it changed his life and his hockey life. They played prep schools and JV teams in colleges. Was getting a lot of interested from schools. He was even drafted by the Sudbury Wolves in the OHL. Gary Dineen told him the best route for him was college because he needed a back up plan if hockey didn't work and that is why he chose Boston College. 

He was also drafted 5th overall in the NHL by the New Jersey Devils. 

The first major disappointment in his career is when he cut from the 1992 Olympic Hockey Team.
