Profile
When they cut off his leg, it seems they increased the size of his heart. Paul Rosen was a promising 15-year-old Midget AAA hockey player skating hard in a 1975 tournament when he fell on the ice and broke his leg in 14 places. At the same time, his dream of playing professional hockey shattered. In 1999, doctors discovered a massive infection in his knees and had to amputate his leg. He was 39 years old. Within a year, Paul made the Canadian National Sledge Hockey Team. He's now ranked as the number one Sledge Hockey goaltender in the world. A rising star of motivational keynoting, Paul Rosen can motivate, educate, inspire and entertain your team. He delivers his high-impact message on overcoming adversity, world-class athletic competition and the power of living a dreamer's life to audiences across North America. In March 2006 the Canadian Sledge Hockey Team won the gold medal final in Turin, beating Norway 3 - 0, it was Canada's first ever gold medal in sledge hockey at the Paralympics.
