Synopsis

What does it take to make it to the NHL when no one drafts you? Can sheer determination and hard work overcome the odds? For Mathieu Olivier, the road to professional hockey was never guaranteed. Coming from an unconventional background as the only player born in Mississippi to reach the NHL, Olivier had to battle for every opportunity. Fans, analysts, and even coaches questioned whether he had what it took to make an impact at the highest level. Would he be able to carve out a lasting career in a league that values speed and skill more than ever?

Olivier’s path to success was anything but easy. From going undrafted to fighting for ice time in junior hockey, and later proving himself in the AHL with the Milwaukee Admirals, he faced constant challenges. The modern NHL has seen a decline in the role of enforcers, but Olivier had to adapt, evolve, and find new ways to contribute beyond his physical play. Injuries, roster moves, and doubters tested his resilience. But each obstacle only fueled his determination to prove he belonged.

In Mathieu Olivier: A Hockey Journey, you will get an inside look at the grit, resilience, and passion that fueled Olivier’s rise to the NHL. From his early years in Canada, to his tenacity in the AHL, to his breakthrough with the Nashville Predators, and finally, his established role with the Columbus Blue Jackets, this book explores:
His humble beginnings and love for the game
The mental and physical challenges of being an enforcer in today’s NHL
The turning points in his career that led to his success
His impact as a leader and role model for younger players
The six-year, $18 million contract extension that cements his place as a key player for the Blue Jackets

Mathieu Olivier’s story is one of hard work, perseverance, and defying expectations. Whether you’re a hockey fan, an aspiring athlete, or someone who appreciates stories of determination, Mathieu Olivier: A Hockey Journey will inspire you.
