The Philadelphia native has spent five decades involved in the game of hockey as a player, coach, director and most recently as a scout.   Mongelluzzo served as Director of Player Personnel for USA's National Junior team from 2002-06.  He's the architect of the Liberty Bell Games, the premier hockey showcase in the Mid-Atlantic region for 14-17 year-olds.   He currently serves as a senior scout for the New Jersey Devils organization.   In this episode, Mongelluzzo discusses the challenges of youth hockey and why an exceptional 12-year-old hockey player doesn't translate into an excellent 18-year-old or even an NHL prospect.    He also dives into the careers of Chris Drury, Mike Richter and Tim Thomas and how they overcame a lack of size with tremendous work ethic.
