Hahah trying my best to blend my new Vancouver move with rehab content. I won't be skating for awhile so I hope you don't mind the change of content! The hockey vlogs will be back as soon as I can skate again :)
I moved to Vancouver, from Winnipeg in January 2023. In this video I explain the main reasons why I moved to Vancouver. What I love most about it and why I will leave Vancouver in the fall. New videos every Sunday at 10 am EST! :) Buy SHEATH and get 20% off the best underwear on the planet with code "TRAVSUCKS" at www.sheathunderwear.com
Other youtubers codes "NAME_IS GREAT" or "NAME_OWNBRAND" or "SHAMELESSPROMO" or some crap like that...then you have Trav over here hitting us with the "TRAVSUCKS" with his buddy walking around in the underwear hahaha. I see you've hit up Metrotown and Richmond, plenty of good eats there. Heard you like Poutine (I'm probably stretching it with breakfast poutine). There's a place in New Westminster Station (literally right in it, like you get off the train and go for it...I've definitely caught myself after work going on occasion) on the Expo Line called Spud Shack Fry Co. They usually don't open at Breakfast but if your girlfriend is okay with late brunch they open up 12pm ("Brunch" haha...I tried...). As for a league game, maybe Abbotsford might be a better time if you wanna see some wins (though its definitely a bit far out). Our AHL team has been going pretty well last I heard (now if only our NHL team can do well *sobs in EP40 deserves better than this*). Glad to see the progress in your recovery and hope things go well for you. All the best Trav.
Hey, freeze small water bottles, it helps vs using lots of ice for that cooling unit. Enjoy Vancouver, I originally am from Delta BC, and thoroughly enjoy the peg for the past 20 yrs. Yes I'm a high end....vet beer league tendy. Enjoy your show.
Love this epy! Great shots! You ever heard the theory about NOT icing to keep inflammation down? Like eau natural? I’ve been doing that for snowboard injuries lately. No pain pills, icing only once, crossing the fingers
I enjoy the videos. I'm actually genuinely curious. Does anyone know how Trav affords to live? I mean, he mentioned that he made little money in Michigan. So I'm actually confused. Trav seems so set on this professional hockey league lifestyle but I don't think he makes much money doing so.. Maybe he won the lottery, inheritance, or comes from a wealthy background?
lol no inheritance, no lottery or wealthy background. All self made. Podcast makes money, this vlog does, pro hockey money, etc. its multiple small streams that add up and keep me afloat and have for 5+ years since I worked a real job
I know you know what's best for you but other than being with your girlfriend, when it comes to hockey you seemed the happiest in Sweden, there was a coach that didn't like you apparently BUT they took care of you and I think you got playing time. Yes/No?
Wytheville, VA. How that market will be successful is beyond me.. no population. Look up Spruce Pine, NC and the Pinebridge Bucks.. Wytheville might be version 2.0
ii just want to say i love the videos but finish a whole seasonn so the doubters take you more serious , you could have even went back to be with your team and teammates for the remainder of the season to show your commitment to the rockers so you dont burn a bridge there
I agree but the prioriy is rehabbing the hip. i won't be playing a game this season so I gotta fix this 100% before going anywhere. Thanks for wtching bro
Nice to see your reaction to a butterfly position without pain. Enjoy it while it lasts. When you get to be my age (in 30-ish years), everything will hurt. It then becomes a matter of degrees and how quickly you recover. Olding sucks.
My girlfriend and I just got back from Vancouver in late January from our Vacation (we're from Ontario). I ended up taking the VIA Rail from Vancouver to Sudbury in Economy class and boy let me tell you it was loooooooong. Vancouver itself is beautiful though. My girlfriend absolutely fell in love with the views and the nature there so we're considering moving there as well. Can't wait to see you back on the ice big man!
Vancouver is widely considered a very beautiful place, you're making a good choice! 👍 Great to hear your hip feels good. I'm convinced you'll land a contract somewhere for next year, no worries! 👌
hit up the hockey shop (that's the name) in Langley. its awesome. also really cool content. I'm a defenceman but the goalie for my team is hurt so i have to goalie for a couple weeks and It's fun.
@@trav4oilers if you recall, some time back I stated how I tore the labrum in my left hip and was able to recover by getting physical therapy. I recently saw I chiropractor and complained how my right ankle is always sore after playing. And that when I learned about the problems with my right hip. Getting old… 0/10. Do not recommend.
I am currently vacationing in Vancouver from Seattle. My takeaway, seems almost all PNW cities are the same, Vancouver is a little busier and more condensed than Seattle. I almost feel claustrophobic in the downtown area. But it's a busy city aka a healthy growing city. We are staying on Bowen Island and my god the views are amazing. So glad to see things are on the up and up for you. I hope this elevates your game and allows you to play at a level you want for the raider of your career.
Sorry I haven’t put any comments out lately I have been catching up to your situation and I hope you could get back into hockey on a high note. Wherever you land I’ll be rooting for you.
Welcome to Vancouver Travs, enjoy Vancouver life here! Look forward to maybe meeting you one day! And glad you're putting the olympic oval to great use haha
@@trav4oilers Nah man, I grew up here in Vancouver haha. A long time local now. Unless you meant the channel. If so, i'm not considered new or a long time subscriber but I've been watching your vids here and there.
Great video, bud! Glad to see your recovery/rehab is coming along well & the hip feels good, and it looks like you're digging Vancouver, and it looks like a gorgeous city. And a stick tap for hanging out with Nick the goalie! Good news about the Fed's expansion teams too, that's exciting. Keep up the good work!
Can you make a video on different kinds of stretches to do before game, warm ups and daily with all the new stuff you learnt since the last. I'm sure some things you've been doing for rehab could be beneficial to learn. Thanks P.s. could be after you're all healed up, don't want you to get hurt trying to show something. Hope you're good enough to get into skates soon.
Yo tray you rock! I played goalie yesterday in my first league game of the year and got absolutely shelled 7-3, im using your dedication to getting better as inspiration to get my game better.
The last video was called I Moved to Vancouver. This video is called Why I Moved to Vancouver. Lots of diversity in the content Trav.

Hey it's a code you'll remember. Metrotown is my closest skt train station!

Yes I found that trick worked nicely with Igor. Youre in winnipeg now?

Thanks Brandon, I love vancouver ;) yes sir, using more heat lately

Trippy seeing you driving around north van with the lady, those deep cove donuts are poppin. Glad ur doing well brother.
Honeys in deep cove is legit!
Wytheville, VA. How that market will be successful is beyond me.. no population. Look up Spruce Pine, NC and the Pinebridge Bucks.. Wytheville might be version 2.0
well that's where they're expanding :) see ya next year?
@@trav4oilers just come on down to Winston.. at least you'll have some fans down this way lol.
Trav, where in Winnipeg did you get you glove replaced with the floating T?
Never had it done, had my brians glove come custom with a floating tee
Travis can you the guy who made your hockey cards reach out to me I'm interested in making some mine own.
You got a set of them ?
Oh the valentimes, good woman, correcting the grammar.
shes been on me for that :)
Glad your recovery is going well! Take care of yourself and hopefully we’ll see you back in Detroit soon 🤘
I will see you in detroit soon, as a visitor or the home team ;)

Economy is tough, especailly for that man days with no shower. Hey thanks for watching the video and welcome to the channel bro!
Well I’m sure you’ve gotten to The Hockey Shop!! They just moved from Surrey to new store in Langley. Great goalie selection.
I think I like the old hockey shop better
Vancouver is widely considered a very beautiful place, you're making a good choice! 👍 Great to hear your hip feels good. I'm convinced you'll land a contract somewhere for next year, no worries! 👌
And hopefully some playing time as well, thank you brother!
Here after listening to you on 4000 and Counting podcast and looking forward to pt 2 😁
Best of luck with the recovery!! 🇬🇧
