With his calm and thoughtful manner, the Slovenian forward talks about the importance of family, perseverance, and believing in yourself throughout his career.

“My family has always been there for me – in good times and in bad,” says Pance. “When I see my kids in the stands, I remember why I’m doing all this.”

He also shares a message that goes far beyond sports: “You should never stop believing in yourself. No matter what comes your way – you can fix it or get over it.”

The Family Friendly series highlights the warmth, closeness, and family spirit that make ice hockey so special – a sport that connects generations and brings people together.
