Humorous Wedding Speech By A College Athlete
First, I would like to thank everyone who came out today. All those people at home and all of the incredible athletes in front of me. I would also like to thank my family for personally being there for me though our fight. This is the first and the last time earning something so wonderful along with all these others.
It is an absolute honor to be here tonight receiving this accomplished award here at the 2018 Winter Olympics. Joining people like Wayne Gretzky and other talented individuals who have won one of these. I am short on time but I hope by the end I want to have said something that will be important to everyone in this room.

It may introduce this wonderful game to someone you love, and ESPN has been kind enough to support me, which means what? Their money and their support is going into my new foundation to get kids off the couch and even off the streets to come out and play a game they will love and cherish forever.
It’s coming down to it now. I thank God for the opportunity to be here today and for the ability to come over here and become an Olympic Champion alongside these teammates beside me. If you see me shake my hand. That is important to me. If you can try to support whether it is this foundation or for something more important to you. I can thank ESPN enough for allowing this to happen. I am going to work as hard as I can for my cause and hopefully in four years I will be back watching Americas future stars earn themselves the honor of a lifetime.
I know, I gotta go, I gotta go; and I got one last thing, and I said it before, and I want to say it again. It is an honor to serve this country and introduce the game of hockey to all those kids just hoping for a chance. Only you can make that
