difference between elite and average

🎤 ⚡️ Nikita Kucherov says that constantly watching shift-by-shift clips played a major role in developing one of the greatest hockey IQs the game has ever seen:
"I don't have the speed, right? I don't have a crazy shot.
I don't have shiftiness like crazy. There's nothing I can be the best in for those abilities. I don't have it naturally.
I can't jump 45 inches. I'm like a 25-inch vertical. I had to use my brain. That guy that's in the gym? I know he's going to fumble the puck. I'm going to go after him and he's going to give me the puck. I know every D-man, his best ability and where he's not comfortable. I can put the puck in a place where he's weak and attack that space, attack his weak spot. For me, I had to learn, I had to watch the clips. Some guys go out drinking. I just want to watch shifts... When you study, you have a bigger library."

Highly recommended for those that want a skating clinic away from Long Island.

Spring came fast… and so did the demand 👀

Because of how many requests we’ve been getting, we just added a LAST-MINUTE Spring Clinic in Wayne, NJ 🏒🔥

This wasn’t originally on the schedule but the need was too big to ignore. Ice is limited, spots are limited, and this one will fill QUICK.

If your player is serious about improving their skating before next season, this is the time. No shortcuts. No off-season excuses. Just work.

true technique that feels awkward at first but definitely improves when it comes to having a strong backhand to rely on
