In today's episode of The Farm Team podcast I am honored to be joined by the CEO and Co-Founder of the Klevr App, Kris Versteeg. Kris is a two-time Stanley Cup Champion with the Chicago Blackhawks and played an incredible 643 games in the National Hockey League. Kris currently resides in the Toronto area with his wife and three children.

The pride of Northside Lethbridge played his way through the Lethbridge Minor Hockey system before cracking the Lethbridge Hurricanes roster during his 16-year old season. Kris went on to play 4 seasons in the Western Hockey League with time spent in Lethbridge, Kamloops, and the infamous Red Deer. In 2004 Kris was drafted by the Boston Bruins in the 5th round and in 2007 Kris was traded to the Chicago Blackhawks where he made his NHL debut on November 22nd against the Calgary Flames.

Kris has grown to be a lot more than just a hockey player from Lethbridge. He is one of the most genuine and caring people you’ll ever meet. He is constantly bringing awareness to the people and communities he has lived in. This past year Kris competed in the ‘Battle of the Blades’ with his skating partner Carlotta Edwards. Kris and Carlotta were able to raise over $15,000 for the Opokaa’sin Early Intervention Society and the Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Calgary and Area.

Kris is an incredible role model for the next generation of athletes and serves as a reminder to always bet on yourself. He is still heavily involved with the game as the CEO of his new sports-tech platform Klevr, owner and operator of the Verset Hockey Camp, and a hockey analyst on Sirius XM and Sportsnet. I’m excited to have Steeger, join me on the show today to talk about all things hockey and to debate the fact that the best chip on the market is, and always will be the Old Dutch Ketchup.
