Arizona Coyotes goaltender Adin Hill revealed he was passed over in the Bantam Draft for the CHL before reaching the NHL, and that his first Team Canada selection for the World Championships in Latvia carried extra meaning because he was chosen by his favourite goalie growing up. Hill also discusses how his stance has evolved with the Coyotes and the unique challenges of playing at his size.
