Colby Collier didn’t set out to build a movement—but that’s exactly what happened.
What started as capturing beer league moments with a GoPro quickly turned into MD Media, a growing hockey content platform, and ultimately the creation of The Wish Cup—a tournament series that has raised over $100,000 for Make-A-Wish.
Colby’s work sits at the intersection of creativity, community, and purpose. Whether it’s producing viral hockey content or organizing events that give back, his focus has remained the same: grow the game while keeping it fun and meaningful.
