Stanley Still Motivates
BostonBruins.com — As he prepared for this upcoming season, Tyler Seguin talked about the memories that motivate his offseason workouts.
Who would Tyler Seguin be if he could switch places with another Bruin? Who was his favorite player growing up, and why does he love Boston so much? In the latest #AsktheBs segment, Tyler answers fan questions from Twitter.
Before Tyler Seguin became a Bruin, or even hit the junior hockey circuit, he attended St. Michael’s College School, a prestigious hockey school in Toronto. And getting there - literally - was not the easiest task.
“Yeah, it was pretty intense for two years,” he said. “My mom would wake me up at about 6 a.m. to go to downtown Brampton which was about a twenty-minute drive at the time to catch a bus.
“I’d take that bus to Yorkdale Mall, which is about probably 40-45 minutes in the morning. From there I’d hop on a subway and take it to St. Claire street which was another about 20 minutes and then from there I’d walk about three of four blocks to get to my first class,” he said.
“So I’d do my best to make my first class every day, but it was definitely a haul every day to make it.”
St. Michael’s now serves as the place for his summer workouts and skates, and Tyler joked that he still walks through the doors with a quick scare that he forgot his homework…
Tyler shows how his dog Marshall has learned to sit and stay before eating his food. Marshall used to get too excited and “attack” his food, as 19 puts it. Proud moment.
Tyler Seguin shows you his simple post-workout meal of eggs, toast and a protein shake - with organic elements, of course, complements of the “Ference effect” as 19 jokingly referred to Andrew Ference’s healthy nutritional habits.

Seguin Returns to St. Michael's
TORONTO, Ontario — I’m sitting here typing with Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (filmed locally) playing in the background, chomping on pizza (pizza) washed down by chocolate milk (as I couldn’t track down any Coke Zero) contemplating my whirlwind Tuesday tour of Toronto with local boy (and Bruins forward) Tyler Seguin and his GTA-based entourage of 20-somethings.
The whole day, beginning with my own late-night stop at Sonic Boom (a terrific record shop) all the way through apps at Real Sports had me reminiscing about my own college days. But the surprising thing was that Tuesday’s trip around T.O. had Seguin recounting his own school days, too.
In the process, I uncovered yet another facet of Boston’s budding superstar.
