Drew Doughty is one of the most accomplished defencemen of his generation, a two-time Olympic gold medallist and two-time Stanley Cup champion.

He made his Olympic debut on home ice at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Games, where he was the youngest member of Canada’s gold medal-winning men’s hockey team, immediately making an impact on the sport’s biggest stage.

Doughty returned to the Olympics at Sochi 2014, helping Canada successfully defend its title.

MBC Media's Chris Soares has a profile of Doughty as part of our 'PRIDE OF THE NATION' series.
