NHL Enlists Young Fans To Join 'Power Players'

For a third year, the National Hockey League is soliciting applications from fans ages 13-17 for a youth advisory board. 

The NHL Power Players help advise the NHL on hockey-related topics important to their generation. 

Starting today through July 2, fans may apply online to be considered. NHL Power Players alumni from the 2020-21 NHL season are also eligible to apply. 

The NHL will select 25 young hockey fans from across the U.S. and Canada for NHL Power Players based on creative ideas they share with the NHL on their local communities, the sport as a whole, social media and fan-driven content. 

The youth advisors will participate in meetings conducted remotely throughout the year to provide suggestions and opinions to the NHL on topics including marketing.
