COACHES Don’t pass rapid fire like this. He’s not even worried about the shot but rather then next puck. Oi.

2025 Development camps are going… what are we going to see this year? Which ones will be valuable vs which one are a waste of time? Chicago Blackhawks continue their trend of no on-ice component. On-ice, first from Buffalo we see stride work.

This is why coaches have the rule that you don’t shoot high off the rush from outside the dots… #FreeBreakOut #Transition #Breakways

Defensive rush tactic I’ve noticed deployed a bunch by the Habs: (1) Weakside D skates forward to match speed and angle off the puck carrier. (2) Strongside D backs up and slides toward non-puck carrier’s movement. Allows the D to skate forward to defend more

Dragging the D into poor spots while a teammate fills the open lane. Great example of Pasta getting off the wall and dragging the D with him. Teammate comes through for great scoring chance. Awesome concept for creating off the rush.

“Drive the puck wide” - outdated hockey advice Crazy… Good things happen when players and coaches prioritize getting inside rather than skating outside and into the corner.

2024 Development camps are wrapping up… what did we see this year? Some are great. Some a garbage. I’ll let you decide which are which. First up… Ducks defending without a stick. Focus on body positioning during 1v1.

As a high school coach, much of what we coach isn’t hockey. Sharing this clip tonight at film:

Demidov working on an important micro-skill… smooth first touch/reception. The first move sets up everything and allows you to exploit unexpecting defenses. Smoothing out his play into highly refined art. This kid is a stud:

Skating at opponents saves ice for you. One of the best all time clips on ice spacing + 1v1 brilliance.

NHLers play games in small spaces all the time. You can’t help but laugh at the stupidity when 8U plays full ice.

Your life after hockey will be longer than your life in hockey… so you have to be all in. Motivation stops at 6am and will make up 1% of your success. Discipline and the ability to get better is what actually makes the difference.

iPads are all over Junior benches and slowly filtering down. Understanding pros/cons helps figure out when to use vs when to avoid. NHLers Denver Barkey on his evolution to avoiding the iPad during the game:

Parenting athletes isn’t easy. Keith Tkachuk's 2 most important lessons for his sons growing up: 1) Compete 2) Be a good teammate (Via Hockey Daily 365 l NHL Highlights & News)

What makes this (Panthers) team special? “It’s the way they treat each other. They love each other. Starts with Barkov (the captain) and it filters down.” 9 new players in the off-season then 2 at the deadline. Foundation of respect and care.

Pat “Big Rig” Maroon is a beloved player Reflecting on his career: - Being a good teammate is the most important thing - Even in the lows, be the positive person - Be there for your teammates - Make the new players feel comfortable - Off ice care translates to on ice performance

What players want out of their coaches:

The weakside D being involved opens up a ton.
