I’ve been asked a lot over the years what I look for in a player during evaluations. After watching my son during various AA & AAA Ice try-outs, I’ve been thinking more about this topic and wanted to share a bit of what I look for and some ot…
The worst part about the summer is the lack of chances to play hockey, especially for those of us who live in rural areas and the rinks take the ice out for the Spring and Summer. Luckily we have beaches, and parks, and camping, but there aren’t any hockey rinks there! Thanks to the Hockey Sauce […]

Two hockey skills that are easy to practice over the summer are stickhandling and shooting. All you need is a smooth surface and a net, and you’re good to go! The only issue with off-ice stickhandling is the lack of movement. On the ice we’re constantly skating, gliding, turning and moving. The only way to […]

It’s only an eight game schedule but my body thinks otherwise—the season feels like 80 games. My legs burn with each stride while my lungs gasp for more air than a carburetor.

A couple of months ago I was browsing Pro Stock Hockey and saw that they had a Zdeno Chara hockey stick up for grabs. At 69″ long (from butt end to heel) it’s the longest, and possibly most unique hockey stick out there. Standing up straight it measures 77″ and is a ridiculous 150 flex. […]
