About Moxie Hockey Consulting
I am Josh Erhardt, the founder of Moxie Hockey Consulting. I grew up in White Bear Lake, Minnesota with an unrivaled spirit for hockey. This enthusiasm had me skating on outdoor rinks with my dad when I was two years old. Throughout my childhood, this dedication for hockey had me internalizing goals for myself– one of which was to eventually play for my hometown team in the Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament. With that simple goal always in mind, my youth hockey years yielded a passion for the sport that continued growing into adolescence.
When this goal came to fruition my senior season, the sense of accomplishment had me more than proud of the years I committed to making my dream a reality. Little did I know, but others had noticed this too. I caught the attention of Division 3 schools and Junior A teams in the USHL and NAHL. Shortly after my senior season ended, I was asked to sign a tender with an NAHL team. I played two seasons and gained unmatched experience as an athlete.
After that chapter came to a close, life took me to Alaska. It is here in southcentral Alaska that I have been able to continue immersing myself in the hockey community through coaching. Over the past ten years, I have coached the Colony Knights high school team for five seasons, the Valley Thunder 18U boys for two seasons, followed by three years with the Mat-Su Eagles youth program. Coaching, for me, has unlocked a new level of zest for this sport in which I look forward to sharing with you and your athlete.
