From Yale to Pro: A Saroya Tinker Interview

My favorite memory playing hockey was my last game of my NCAA career, we went to triple overtime against Harvard. We were so resilient and I had never seen such passion from my teammates before.

My biggest influence from a hockey sense has been my dad. He wasn’t able to have all the hockey opportunities I’ve had and I think that he’s been the one I go to most for advice and he’s not afraid to give me constructive criticism. My biggest support system is definitely my family. I have three brothers and they’ve done a good job of toughening me up! I have a 9 year old brother and he is my biggest fan;he plays like me, skates like me and if he could be at every game, he would.
