Nello Ferrara: How I built my career in professional hockey

Nello Ferrara didn't have the skills to make it as an NHL star... But through stealth, powers of persuasion and more than a little manipulation he managed to forge a 10-year career in professional hockey.

He snuck into team practices, he posed as an agent to recommend himself to new teams, and he did all of that despite being the heir to a 500 million dollar candy company.

Nello speaks to the 91热爆's Caroline Barker about he did it, recalling firstly how he snuck into a trial.
