Youth Hockey - YouTube Playlist

This is a playlist of practice ideas done by U18 and younger. The U17 camp was left as a separate playlist. Lots of the drills are from various teams and camps I have coached here, Austria and the Czech Republic but there are many other ideas as well. They were the ones took a camera along.


Practice ideas for U18 and younger players.

Jasper Skating and Hockey Camp 2016 Practice and Game Video

The Game is the Great Coach

I took some video of the hockey sessions and only have one clip of the skating.

Our little hockey camp had 25 players with the age range of 6-16, 5 girls, 20 boys, they got 3 ice times a day for 5 days, half hockey and half skating. We divided them into a younger group of 12 and older group of 13. They all skated with Gaston at the same time alternating 2 skating 1 hockey M-W and 2 hockey 1 skating T-Th. Friday they got 1 skating, 1 hockey and 1 game. Younger group got a 60' practice each afternoon and the older group a 75' session by themselves. T-Th we had one 60' practice with everyone. We had goalies and a few of the older player sessions but otherwise use 6 half size nets for games and drills. So the young players got 15 hours of ice time and the older players 16 in 5 days.

We finished with a game where they rotated twice 10' each, younger then older, then played one 15' game. We combined the score white vs. dark.

In beautiful Jasper National Park for our annual camp. The players get three ice times a day and alternate between two skating with Gaston and one hockey with Jim and I and the next day two hockey and one skating. Friday the get one skating, one hockey and finish with a game. So 15 ice times in 5 days. That is 7.5 weeks of practices for the team I am coaching this season.

Gaston is at another level as far as teaching skating. 5 years touring the world as a professional performer for Ice Capades and Holiday on Ice, Swiss Champ and Olympic skating coach, Doctorate in Body Mechanics. I watched the pro rookie camp and the skating instruction pales to what Gaston does. One of our players who has attended for 7 years was the fastest of 160 U15 boy's at a Hockey Alberta, Western League combine camp a few months ago.

We have 24 players in total, 12 younger(5-11) and 12 older (up to 15) They are together for the skating 7 times, hockey 3 times and the smaller groups of 12 have a practice every day. the young group for 60 min. And the older group for 75 minutes.

I have 6 small nets on the ice and we practice technique for puck handling and passing and then play small area games for the at least 40 minutes of each hour with the young kid's. The older group has two goalies at their 75 min practice and we do the SAG's at each end or one end and also use the small nets for games that work on technique and good playing habits. We also do full ice modified games with rules like at least one pass in each zone, Only 2" with the puck, etc.

Today we will introduce individual defensive skill like blade on the puck, defensive side, stick lift as well as have puck protection competition and battling.

Every day I go for a long bike ride and the food at the camp is fantastic.

Life is good at the Jasper Skating and Hockey Camp.

Life Happens on the Way to the Dream

I posted a manual on Transition Games yesterday and watching players in some of the videos made me think of what happens to them on the way to their dream of playing in the NHL. Some made it and some didn't for various reasons. I will write about some of the better prospects to show that there are a lot of hurdles on the way and even when you get to the top things aren't always easy.

I started coaching a lot my first year of teaching PE in Junior High school. We had a school league and a hockey option where the kid's got three ice times a week. Ten years later I was head coach in college and we played the U of Calgary. The captain of both teams were in my hockey class. One went on to play pro in Germany and the other got a few tryouts with the Flames but his skill wasn't enough to to make up for being about 5'9" and 165 lbs..

During that era I coached a lot of summer camps and spring teams. One group I worked with was exceptional. It was coached by someone I played Jr. A with who played some minor league but quit when his future wife called and told him it was either her or hockey and he chose her.

Three players from that team were first round NHL drafts. I coached one of them a lot each summer, one when I was in Austria and one just that spring team. Here is what happened in their way to the dream.

The first played went NCAA then made the NHL and had a pretty good first year. He ended up with concussion problems.. He went up and down NHL-AHL for years. I helped get him a contract in Europe that he backed out of. He didn't play last year.

Player two was the highest ranked of the three when they were playing U18 but got a stomach muscle tear. He decided to go Major Junior and went 5 or 6 seasons that he played less than 10 games and then the injury came back. He finally played a full season in the American League but now he was about 26 and ended up playing for us in Austria and then played in the KHL and all over Europe. I saw him at a rink a few weeks ago and he is retiring.

Player three is someone I coached every summer from the first time he was on the ice at 5 until he was 17. He skated with the various Korean teams I was a guest coach for each summer in the 90's. He ended up drafted 2nd overall and had a great start to his career. He bought a high powered car and a motorcycle cut him off and the car crashed into a barrier and got cut in half severing the seat belt anchors. He was really injured and everyone knows what happened to his friend. He had major surgery to reconstruct his shoulder and knee. I thought his career was done but he was one of the top scorers in the NHL from about 2003 until 2011, He played in two Olympics and was the top player in a few IIHF World Championships. He needed to have both his knee and shoulder redone and had groin problems and lost a few steps and now plays in Europe.

Next are players from the 85ers team that demonstrates a few of the transition games in the transition game videos. A year ago six of them were still playing pro. Some are retiring now.

Player one was a second round draft choice. He was in that 2003 draft and played for Canada in the World Juniors in North Dakota. Unfortunately he got injured at practice and didn't play much. He was a part time NHLer up and down between the NHL-AHL. He played in Europe and now coaches there.

Player two was really skilled but small. He went NCAA and won the Hobey Baker. Unfortunately he stopped growing at 5'6" and about 165 lbs. He is very skilled and I recommended him to the team in Austria and he has made a career there except for one season where he played in the AHL. He did well but without an NHL contract he wasn't used on the PP because they want their players practicing in those situations, so he went back to Europe and has made a very good career there.

Player three was also drafted in the second round and went NCAA for two years before turning pro. He is one of the really small 85er players in the video who skated bent over like Gretzky. He grew to 6' but only about 175 lbs. He had a good start to his NHL career and scored 25 goals and went to the Stanley Cup final but got hit in an awkward position in the corner and broke his back and ended up in a full body cast. He trained hard and came back and has been playing mostly in the NHL since taking one year contract where he scored 19 goals then a three year deal but got bought out and just signed a two way for next year.

The other small guy had a dad that always complained and he ended up quitting and was the only one on that team to not play at least Jr. A. The two big early maturing defensemen in the video ended up not growing much after and played Major Junior as smallish 5'10' skilled D. I worked a lot with another 85 born player with good size and skill. He played 4 years of Div. 1 and in the minors and Europe. His dad insisted on calling the coaches to tell them how to use him and of course this went around and he couldn't get a contract. Another 85er who I coached the most had a Major Junior coach come watch him and tell him he was definitely good enough to play on his team. He was 6' 140 at the time and the day before main camp he decided he was too light and didn't attend the camp. He skated in a 3 on 3 camp with all major Jr. players and doubled the points of the next scorer. So skill is only one of the factors.

An 87 born player who always attended my camps and played as an underage affiliate on some of my teams was drafted in the second round, played NCAA and on two Canada world junior teams. He scored 125 goals in Pee Wee and did his last two years of high school in one year then went to college. I don't know what happened but they seemed to coach the offensive creativity out of him and he became a hard nosed defensive specialist who hit and fought as a 5' 10" 175 lb player. He kicked around the minors and I got him a tryout in Europe but he didn't have the offensive confidence anymore and retired.

When I was assistant coach at university we had a player who played Major Junior scored 135 points one year and 162 the next with 81 G and 81 A. He was the WHL player of the year. The problem he was 5' 9" and 175 lbs. but wasn't a fast skater. He could only get goals and assists. Every season we would have players who attended NHL camps but this player was never asked. I wondered why no team even tried to see if he could be a PP specialist. I think he still holds the record in Major Jr. for PP goals and that is over all the famous players you can think of.

I did three skills sessions a week at a local sports school to pay for my son's tuition and hockey fee. I only knew the boy's first names because they got bused to the rink and I was waiting there for them. Three made the NHL, one just signed with another team, one is skilled by undersized and played a while and now plays in the KHL, a third won the ROY and is a top two D.

I more or less got into coaching female hockey in 2003-04 season at college for 5 years, went to coach for the Red Bulls in Austria, then pro women for 2 and then Bantam boy's and back to Midget AAA girl's until last season. Many of the girl's have gone on to play college hockey.

In 2008-09 when I coached in Austria and had a 93 born Finnish D man on my U17 team. He is undersized at 5' 11" and about 175 but may be the best skater I have coached. He won ROY in the Finnish Elite league two seasons ago and attended an NHL camp. He should end up in the NHL but he needs to be with the right organization. Another 93 born player in that group was ROY in Austria's top pro league.

Watching TV I saw another former player who played for me in Midget AA in the 82-83 season. He is GM of the NHL team from the 'Land of 10 000 Lakes' and has done very well for himself.

So size, skating, women, bad luck, injuries, parents, confidence are all important factors that happen on the Way to the Dream.

Every one on these players who didn't make it are successful in business. So the struggles and successes on the ice have transferred well to life after hockey.

Activity in 30 Minutes of a Drills Practice

This is from a random practice that I watched after running my skills practice with a school group. It is a U18 group practicing skills. In studies done in Canada and Finland the average 60 minute practice that uses drills has each player active for between 7 and 11 minutes per hour.

This was a well organized drill practice where the coach had a plan with stations and active assistant coaches helping. It is at the high end of the 7-11 minutes of activity in a drill based practice.

I took a video of one player for 30 minutes and she was active for 5’ 26” (five minutes and twenty-six seconds) and waited in line, got drinks, watched drill demonstrations or watched drill explanations on the white board for 24 minutes and 34 seconds in 60 minutes.

So at this pace the players would have been active 10’ 52’ in one hour and been inactive 49’ 8”.

So the question is ‘Is a drill based practice the ideal way to develop players.’

I put the 30 minute video on YouTube.

https://youtu.be/6_N97Qalma4

On this site.
http://www.hockeycoachingabcs.com/mediagallery/media.php?f=0&sort=0&s=20160621171316260

Stats that give the players active and inactive segments are below.

Active from 28-44 seconds, puck handle and shoot.- 16”.

Stand in line and watch demo 44” to 2’03” – 1’ 19”

Starts passing and skating 2' 3" to 2' 20" = 17"

Back to the lineup 2’ 20” to 3' 9" = 49"

Starts Passing 3:01 to 3’ 23” = 22”

In line 3' 23" to 4’ 4” = 41”

Active 4’ 4” to 4’ 14” = 7” and coach ends the drill.

Demo of new drill 4’ 14” to 4’ 51” = 37”

Active 4’ 51” to 5’ 3” = 12”

Inactive 4’ 51” to 5’ 42” = 51”

Active 5’ 42” to 5’ 50” = 8”

Inactive 5’ 50” to 6’ 22” = 32”

Active 6’ 22” to 6’ 32” = 10”

Inactive 6’ 32” to 7’ 28” = 56”

Active 7’ 28” to 7’ 48” = 20”

Inactive 7’ 48” to 8’ 26” = 38”

Active 8’ 26” to 8’ 34” = 8” then drink and new drill.

Inactive 8’ 34” to 11’ 18” = 2’ 44” at the board and waiting for next rep.

Active 11’ 18” to 11’ 29” = 11”

Inactive 11’29” to 11’ 49” = 20”

Active 11’ 49” to 12’ = 11”

Inactive 12’ to 12’ 20” = 20”

Active 12’ 20” to 12’ 31” = 11”

Inactive 12’ 31” to 16’ 52” = 4’ 21” coach teaching and demo of new drill then wait for turn.

Active 16’ 52” to 17’ 25” = 33”

Inactive 17’ 25” to 19’ 18” = 1’ 53” waiting then watching coach demo.

Active 19’ 18” to 19’ 55” = 37”

Inactive 19’ 55” to 21’ 34” = 39” waiting and watch demo of variation.

Active 21’ 34” to 21’ 59” = 25”

Inactive 21’ 59” to 23’ 1” = 1’ 2”

Active 23’ 1” to 23’ 28” = 27”

Inactive 23” 28” to 27’ 28” = 4’ Drink, new drill demo, wait for turn.

Active 27’ 28” to 27’ 54” = 26”

Inactive 27’ 54” to 29’ 26” = 1’ 32” Watch demo and wait for turn.

Active 29: 25” to 29’ 50’ = 25”

Inactive 29’ 50” to 30” Time period is finished.

In 30’ there are 1800”

The player was active for 326” = 5’ 26” of Activity

The player was inactive either waiting, getting a drink, listening to instruction for 24’ 34”.

I am in Spain playing exhibition games and a tournament with some friends and their son's. We are in San Sebastián now and it is a great place right on the Atlantic Ocean. Great beach and our hotel is in the prime spot along the shoreline.

They have a lot of good hockey players here and the games are competitive. Friday we travel to Vitoria where we play in a tournament that features back to back 30 minute games. I have never done that before so it should be interesting.

10 Practices For Beginners - ABC Method

The first PDF is from Level 0, which is non-skaters and there are four practices using games and exercises that focus on skating and good habits.

The second PDF uses Level 1 to continue skating, skating with a puck, shooting. Skating and shooting exercises games and tournaments with modified rules and multiple pucks are done.

Re: Require '3' U19 Players in the CIS

Require 3 U19 Players in the CIS and Canadian College Hockey

I have spent 17 years coaching in the Canadian university and college leagues. Three times I went to the CIS finals in Toronto with the U of Calgary and coached in the Alberta Colleges men's league four years and women's league five seasons.

On the female side it is the highest level most of the girl's will ever play and they enter right after high school.

The men's side is different. A boy right out of U18 Midget AAA has almost zero chance of making the varsity team. He has to play at least Jr. A and for the CIS teams it is usually Major Jr. before he will even be considered. Even Div. 1 NCAA is going this way. One of my friends son has a full ride to and eastern NCAA school but not until he finished another year of Jr. A. They aren't interested in development but want a player who can contribute right away.

So you get players who are very good but they have gone through the draft and played a few years after and will graduate at 24-25+, then go to work or some play in the low minors or Europe (I have helped over 15 of my former players get contracts in the lower leagues in Europe).

Change the rules so that at least 3 freshman per season must be U19 and then the CIS would start producing some high level pro prospects. Another benefit is that they would be the same age as other freshman who would identify more with them than the other 21 year old first year players.

The CIS coaching is the top coaching in Canada and the practice time is at least double what you get in Junior where playing games is the focus and we have fallen behind countries like the USA, Finland, Sweden, Russia developing skilled, creative players.

Germany doesn't develop many high level players because they follow the same model as the CIS. The imports play while the Germans watch from the bench. Austria has point system in their top league. It doesn't matter if you are Austrian or not but if you played NHL or another top league then you are 4 points and the scale goes 3-2-1 depending on age and experience. So a young Austrian only counts for 1 point and that encourages the club to develop their young players instead of jut buy them.

Just throwing the idea out there.

Finland Champs Again

2016 Champs of the World U20, World U18

They are doing a great job in developing hockey players in Finland.

Our book should be called "The Finnish Method" instead of Hockey Coaching ABC's.

Juhani Wahlsten is the father of coaching there and the main author of the program. Too many games and focus on skating and good habits for most coaches but it seems to be working in that part of Scandinavia.

I have been in contact with Juhani's partner Kalle Kaskinen. He is the one who brought the Finnish U17 team that skated outside two years ago here. He has been coaching for Jokerit, Helsinki in the KHL the last few years but is moving back to be coach of the TPS U20 team and Assistant in the 2016 World Cup and 2018 Olympics. He was Finlands coach in the 2012 U20 tournament. He thinks we should edit the book to update it a little and change the cover (terrible cover makes it look like the book was written in the 70's.)

Do We Teach Our Players How to Play the Game or How to Do Drills

T – Hockey A Game of Transition

In a game between two even teams.

Your team will get the puck about 180 times.

The opponent will get the puck about 180 times.

Loose puck situations happen between going from offense to defense and from defense to offense.

Three Game Situations Percentages

Your team is on offense 35% of the time.

Your team is on defense 35% of the time.

The puck is loose 30% of the time.

Video Examples - Shifts of games at the World Championships and Detroit vs. Pittsburg.

These video clips will surprise most coaches when you see how many transitions there are in ONE hockey shift. The nature of the game is that a player is constantly transitioning from offense to defense to loose puck battles. This shows how good habits like facing the puck with the stick on the ice, defensive side, quick offense need to be made a priority when we practice. Transition from offense to defense to loose puck is the constant in the game and the teams that do that best will be the most successful.

There is a coloured circle at top right hand corner to represent the game situation.

Green – your team is on offense.

Red – your team is on defense.

Yellow – loose puck.

Re: UNB - Gardiner MacDougall

I have to post this article because Gardiner MacDougall gets what the game is all about both on and off the ice.

http://www.getsportiq.com/2016/03/better-every-single-time/

University of New Brunswick Hockey

If Gardiner MacDougall weren’t so good at what he does, he could be considered an anomaly. 2016 marks his 16th year at the helm of the UNB Varsity Reds and his contract takes him through until 2019, a tenure that’s practically unheard of in the coaching world.

But there’s a reason why they keep him around. He’s led the V-Reds to four national championships and three Canadian Interuniversity Sport silver medals; he’s been awarded the Atlantic University Sport coach of the year three times and was named the CIS coach of the year in 2010 after leading to his team to a 27-1 record (with 26 consecutive wins), and again in 2015. The 2007-08 team had the most successful season in AUS history (31-1-1) as well as the most wins ever (43) in Canadian university hockey. In 2006, he became the all-time winningest coach in UNB history with 106 wins and in 2014, became the 1st AUS hockey coach to accumulate over 400 wins. Not only that, his players keep setting academic records, too.

The Coaches Site wanted to know what drives him and how he continues to draw the best from his players. Here is what he had to say.

I’m originally from PEI and I went to school at St. Francis Xavier and St. Mary’s so the University of New Brunswick was originally my opponent. I didn’t go to UNB but my sister did—she was a field hockey player and went on to the Canadian national team and participated in the Seoul Olympics—and she always spoke highly of it.

Before I had the opportunity to coach at UNB, I had an interview for the job two years prior and I was very impressed with the process. I had been coaching in Western Canada for about 14 years when the position opened up again. I applied a second time, but they were looking for an alumni to take over the program. The person they wanted ended up not wanting to take it so I guess I was third time lucky.

My son was 10 years old at the time and this was our fifth location, as is typical in the coaching world as you are always striving to coach at a more challenging level. . When you coach, you coach and try to make it the “best ever” experience for your players and fans for that one year and then see what happens. In the coaching world, a long-term contract is a three goal lead in the third period with one minute left in the game, so I guess there is a certain amount of family security in university coaching..

I think the proactive people in this world ask: where can I go and what can I do to make a difference? Part of the mission statement at UNB is “… make a significant difference.” It was a good fit. I get to teach some classes in the faculty of kinesiology and am involved in the leadership with hockey, but it’s always a question of how can I make a difference?

I’ve found the answer is that it’s all about little things. The philosophy here is to be the B.E.S.T, Better Every Single Time, and that’s what we try to get out of our players.

Getting the most out of them comes down to focusing on one part of your game, maybe it’s speed as we want our team to play with pace and our theme is Fast & Faster, if you get a little better every time you come to the rink , then you see how much better you get after a month and then after a year. We have our guys for four / five years so if we’re doing our job and the player is meeting his commitment, then he’s going to be not only a much better hockey player at the end of four years but a much better person as well by learning so many life lessons on how to compete , how to grow their “grit” and how to respond to daily challenges..

It was probably the second or third year when I started seeing guys do really well academically. It was almost as exciting to see how well guys were doing in school as winning a game. I like to say enthusiasm is contagious and you should spread the fever, so it is so rewarding to see how well our players do in school.

We had a former player – Denny Johnson from the WHL who had a 59 percent average in high school but was an Academic All-Canadian (3.5+ GPA) five years in a row while he was here, he became one of the top students we’ve ever had, and now he’s a doctor in Swift Current and works as Sports Psychologist for the Broncos. Many players end up getting their MBA degrees here and we currently have 3 players in Engineering and one in Law School. Two years ago we had 13 Academic All-Canadians from our group, which is outstanding.

We put up a paper that had the 3.0+ GPA Club on it and it’s amazing to see what that could do in terms of peer value and pressure. But you’ve got to hand it to the players and the environment created by the players that have come before them that has cultivated the importance of academics here and I give them full credit for what they’ve done.

University is a higher order of learning but I think it should be a higher order of giving back as well, so community is another big part of the equation. We try to give back to the community with development camps that our players help us out a great deal and we created our V-Red Prospects youth development program which has really made a big difference in Atlantic Canadian hockey development. We recently had our 23rd and 24th participant from this program play games in the NHL with Logan Shaw from Florida and Morgan Ellis in Montreal..

We have three things we expect from our student – athletes. One is to be protectors, to protect what’s been done here before, it’s a great legacy and a great tradition both on and off the ice so the group this year has to protect what’s been done here before.

Then we talk about being builders, building something new that’s special to the group we have. In the fall we beat an AHL team in an exhibition game and also defeated a # 1 ranked NCAA team in exhibition play,.We had tied an AHL team before but had never beat them, so this group found a way to build on what’s been done. The third thing is being believers, you can’t protect and you can’t build if you don’t believe you can. Confidence is a big part of our program here, the better physical condition you’re in, the more confidence you’re going to have as a player.

When the players come to practice every day, I expect the very best out of them, and our fitness trainer expects the very best out of them, and then they start to expect the best out of themselves. Hockey is the main love but you want them to have values they are going to use when they move on from hockey. When you’ve been with a program this long, you get to see how well the players and alumni have done in different aspects of life. We have had over 50 players play at the AHL level and 4 of our recent grads have signed NHL contracts with 2 of them playing NHL games – last year we had 5 former coaches coaching in the NHL so development is a huge part of our program here as well.

You just signed on until 2019 so what’s next?

I’m looking for the next win. There are always new challenges each and every year and as a coach, you have to identify those challenges but ultimately, it’s about doing this better than it’s ever been done before. Even though there are high standards here at UNB, the group this year has found ways to make it even better so it’s exciting; it’s a special journey with the group we have this year.

When a player makes a decision to play University hockey, he can choose anywhere he wants to go. I learned early on that I’m a much better coach when I have great players and am working with great people. I’ve been fortunate to work with terrific staff from day one and we have so many people involved in different ways with our program to help make it better every year – our Sports Pyschologist now works with Tampa Bay , our former video coach is in Toronto with the Maple Leafs while academicially we get tremendous support from the academic community.. My Associate Coach now is Rob Hennigar who played for me for 4 years and was our 4 x MVP and left here on an NHL contract as the CIS Athlete of the Year. After his pro career , he joined our staff last year. He bleeds the program and has done an excellent job with our group and with youth development in Fredericton.

Hockey is more of a passion for me than a job and you can’t have what I have without support and I have a terrific wife and son and daughter who have allowed me to pursue my passion on a daily basis. It was Steve Jobs who said, “life is all about connecting the dots” and unfortunately most people connect the dots after they’ve lived their lives. I see the connections and see that I’ve been very lucky.

There’s a big difference going from good to great and it’s not easy to get there. It’s not easy to have success, you have to put a lot of work into it, you can’t worry about the hours – no National Championships are won by working a 40 hour week so you don’t look at putting hours in, it’s just whatever it takes to get the job done. There’s no guarantee for success but you can put things in place that at least provide a foundation and hopefully the plan works. We’ve been fortunate here at UNB, it’s worked for the most part.

Re: How We Play Hockey in Russia by Evgeny Kuznetsov

You Gotta Read This article by Russian player Evgeny Kuznetsov, who came to the NHL to play for Washington.

Evgeny Kuznetsov
Washington Capitals / Forward

How much I do I love hockey? I can’t even describe. In Russia, we don’t really have a Christmas break, but from December 31 to January 3, everything closed. Even hockey school. These were the worst days of my life. Four days with no hockey, I get so depressed. I can’t even sleep. Just sit watching YouTube of Kovalev and wait.

Some people in Canada understand this, I think. In my hometown of Chelyabinsk, hockey is religion. Only one sport. Hockey.

For me, it start when I’m little boy. I tell you one of my very first memories. My dad take me to the rink, and I see this older guy score goal, and he do a really cool celebration. Slide around on his knees, you know? I say to myself, I want to do that. This looks so fun.

From that day, I live at hockey rink.

Actually, I can give you my schedule. I remember, because it was same every day:

I wake up at 7 a.m.

Go to school for five hours. All morning, think about hockey. Can’t concentrate on school. Just want to skate.

As soon as I can, I run out of school and go to the rink. I live 30-second walk from hockey school. If I run, 10 second. My mom would be waiting for me at the rink with my lunch and my hockey bag. My mom cook unbelievable. I’d eat like a hungry guy. Quick as I could, you know? Because I couldn’t wait to get on the ice. I’d practice with my team, and then after practice I’d do another practice with the older guys.

Practice is much different in Russia. We skate, skate, skate. As a kid, that was the focus of the coaches — to make sure you were skating the proper way. No hitting, no dump in corner. Practice was about playing hockey — scrimmage, one-on-one, lots of skills. This is the Russian style. When I come to America, guys ask, “Is it like Red Army? You skating with weights and stuff?”

No, that’s different time. For kids my age, it’s skill, skill, skill.

When I was eight years old, I score maybe 10, 15 goals in a game. Give me time to try lots of different celebrations, like the older guys. But not NHL guys. I didn’t know NHL. My heroes when I was young was some local guys in Chelyabinsk. When I got older, maybe 14 years old, I finally got to see a computer for first time. YouTube was everything. I get to see how Wayne Gretzky play, how Red Machine play. I get to see how Alexei Kovalev, Ilya Kovalchuk and Ovi play. For me, Kovalev is the best. Nobody even close to his skill. You can ask any player who ever play with him, or ever see him on the ice, and they tell you the same thing. Kovalev was unbelievable.

When I was eight years old, I score maybe 10, 15 goals in a game. Give me time to try lots of different celebrations, like the older guys.

I didn’t have a computer at home. My friend got one, so we would all sit there for two hours watching YouTube, seeing how guys are playing. Then we go onto the ice and try to do the same thing.

Couple guys who were older than me, they live in an apartment above our hockey school. One guy was Alex Semin. When I see him play for the first time, his skill was unbelievable. I’m like, Wow, I got to learn from this guy. So I started hanging out with him all the time, because we both obsessed with hockey.

The big problem was the rink was closed at night. We still want to skate. But I came up with a plan with Semin.

We would save some money and go buy some Coca-Cola and take it to the security guard as a little gift, and he would open the gate for us. So we got to skate all alone. It was unbelievable. This was important time. After 15, 16 years old, no one can teach you skill anymore. When you are young, it’s automatic. That’s when you need to learn skill.

My father teach me, too. First thing, you never look at puck. Eyes always up. Look left, right, forward. You look down, it’s over. Even now, if I look down at puck in a game, my dad let me know about it. He texts me. If I score three goals but I don’t have an assist, he texts me. Because he teach me to be unselfish. You have to play for your partner. This is very Russian, this principle. I guess because of the Red Machine.

But this works only when all five guys working together perfect. If a guy skates in and shoots from blue line without passing, it’s like he doesn’t have respect. That’s how we play in Russia. When I come to America last year to play in NHL, I learn it’s a little different.

In my team in KHL, if you dump the puck, coach might put you on bench and you never go out and play hockey again. It’s true.

If a guy skates in and shoots from blue line without passing, it’s like he doesn’t have respect. That’s how we play in Russia.

If you’re a forward and you dump it, like maybe once they say, “Hey, hey, come on. What you doing?”

Next time you do it, that’s it. You must be crazy.

My first 10 games in NHL, I don’t understand why guys keep dumping puck. I’m looking at coach like, Is he going to say something? And he’s like, happy about it.

Even Ovi. I see him dump it. I’m looking at him like, What?!

But we keep winning. So I’m like, Ok, well, I guess it’s working.

Now I totally understand why we do this. But at first, I’m so confused. In the NHL, the space is so tight that you can’t think you’re special. If my teammates play 60 hard minutes, do the right things, and then I turn the puck over at the blue line and we lose, I got 22 big guys in the locker room very angry with me. Not good.

USATSI_8993251

The way we play for Capitals is a little different than most NHL teams. Lots of passing, movement. We play for our partner. No selfish guys on our team. That’s first thing I notice when I come here that surprise me. Everybody friends. Like, even this guy Brooks Orpik. He’s totally different from me. But he became my friend. He’s a little older, so we call him Batya. It’s like “father” in Russian.

He win Stanley Cup, so I know I gotta learn from this guy. But I try to teach him, too. After every practice, we do what we call “hockey school.”

For 20 minutes, we stay out on ice and work on our skill with Batya. He see how me, Ovi and a couple guys always do it. So he said he want to do it, too. We do some passes and stick handle, do crazy moves, funny things. For a big guy, he can really do it. He’s got skill. He’s not like a wood man, you know?

Brooks says, “OK, now we do checking school.”

I say no way, man.

Some people here in America don’t like Russian style. They say it’s boring, all you do is skate. Nobody fight. Blah, blah, blah. But I like to see when team possess the puck for two minutes and then wait for guy to shoot in the open net. Here, some fans always yelling “Shoot it! Shoot it!” when you cross blue line. But watch how much Chicago holds onto the puck in the playoffs. They don’t have many Russians, but they play the Russian style. I’m happy to see it working in NHL. To me, that’s the best way to play hockey. That’s amazing.

Some people say, “Hey, how are you doing in America? It’s like a big deal for Russians to come. Some don’t like it.”

USATSI_8916008

I’m like, What you talking about?

My decision to come play in NHL was easy for me. My last season in KHL, I had a lot of injuries. I wasn’t scoring a lot. I feel like I need a new start for my career. And of course, I get to play with Ovi. Come on, this is great.

First practice in Washington, I see Ovi and my legs are shaking. I’m so nervous. He’s legend in Russia. He called me right away when I was drafted by Capitals. Every summer he text me: When you coming to Washington? Now finally I’m on his team. I feel like I’m 16-year-old kid.

Everybody know Ovi from his stats. But I tell you, when you get on the ice with him and you see his shot for the first time, it’s crazy. It’s so, so hard. When I shoot, I can see my puck. When he shoots … Oh, come on. Where’s the puck?

To play with him every day is really special, especially for Russian.

For me, it’s same hockey. Same since I was a little boy. I just want to play hockey, come home. Watch the Family Feud, go to bed. Wake up, play hockey again. That’s perfect for me. The only difference is that now I have a family who I must take care of as well — and they mean the most to me.

Who knows, maybe some bored Russian kid is watching my YouTube now. That would be cool.

Finland - Czech U20 teams are playing on TSN right now and it is 3-3 after two periods. It is a terrific game. Most of the Finnish U17 players were on the team that played in and won the Mac's U18 tournament here in 2013 and were coached by my friend Kalle Kaskinen who is and assistant coach for Jokerit in the KHL right now and has worked with Juhani and myself for years. I mentored Petr Svoboda in 2010 who coaches the D for the Czech U20 team now now playing and continue to communicate with him.
So they game has a lot of meaning for me because of these connections so I wrote a posting about how these groups have a connection with this ABC site.

Czech Republic

Petr Svoboda a former Toronto defenseman coaches the defense for the Czech U20 team playing now. In 2010 I was brought to Jihlava, Czech Republic to run the hockey school and mentor the coaches. Petr was the only coach who spoke English so I always met with him about practice plans and then he presented them to the players and coaches. I also mentored him with his team who started their training camp at the same time. I would meet and develop a practice plan with Petr and then watch and talk with him after. The club offered me a job as coach mentor but I returned to Calgary.

Here the Dukla Jihlava team is doing a Double Cross and Drop from the practice plan. I watched and took video from above.

This is a great post by Dean on his sports IQ site where John O'Sullivan shows how elite coaches want multi-sport atthletes. You need to read the attached pdf or go to the site to see the diagram.

Can You Guess the One Thing That Most Elite Athletes Have in Common

http://www.getsportiq.com/2015/02/can-you-guess-the-one-thing-that-most-elite-athletes-have-in-common/

Posted by Dean Holden at February 23rd, 2015

by John O’Sullivan, 18 February 2015

In January, my e-mail and social media accounts lit up with a simple image first shared with me on Twitter by @ohiovarsity.
It’s amazing because the image portrays something that is widely known among experts, widely discussed in coaching circles, and has certainly been written about by me and others many times. Yet this excellent blog article on a high school sports site got over half a million shares in its first three days because this image touched a nerve.
Why? Well, here is the image:

The question I was asked over and over was, “What do you think of this?” My answer, over and over was, “Amen, agreed, hopefully now people will start paying attention.”

If it takes an infographic of [football head coach] Urban Meyer’s football recruits at Ohio State [the Buckeyes won the first ever College Football Playoff National Championship in January] to shift the paradigm in youth sports, then so be it. The image above clearly demonstrates that the overwhelming majority of his recruits are multi-sport kids.

This is not new information, but it has caused quite a stir. Here is what it says in a nutshell: To be an elite level player at a college or professional sport, you need a degree of exceptional athleticism. And the best medically, scientifically, and psychologically recommended way to develop such all around athleticism is ample free play and multiple sport participation as a child.

Why? Well let’s see what the experts say:

Coaches and elite athletes Pete Carroll, former USC and now Seattle Seahawks Football coach, says here, “The first questions I’ll ask about a kid are, ‘What other sports does he play? What does he do? What are his positions? Is he a big hitter in baseball? Is he a pitcher? Does he play hoops?’ All of those things are important to me. I hate that kids don’t play three sports in high school. I think that they should play year-round and get every bit of it that they can through that experience. I really, really don’t favor kids having to specialize in one sport. Even [at USC], I want to be the biggest proponent for two-sport athletes on the college level. I want guys that are so special athletically, and so competitive, that they can compete in more than one sport.”

Dom Starsia, University of Virginia men’s lacrosse: “My trick question to young campers is always, ‘How do you learn the concepts of team offense in lacrosse or team defense in lacrosse in the off-season, when you’re not playing with your team?’ The answer is by playing basketball, by playing hockey and by playing soccer and those other team games, because many of those principles are exactly the same. Probably 95 percent [of our players] are multi-sport athletes. It’s always a bit strange to me if somebody is not playing other sports in high school.”

Or in this interview with Tim Corbin, coach of NCAA Champion Vanderbilt Baseball, on why he chooses multi-sport athletes over single sport kids.

Or Ashton Eaton, world record holder and gold medalist in the decathlon, who never participated in 6 of the 10 required decathlon events until he got to the University of Oregon.

Or Steve Nash, who got his first basketball at age 13 and credits his soccer background for making him a great basketball player, a similar story to the 100 professional athletes interviewed in Ethan Skolnick and Dr. Andrea Korn’s book, Raising Your Game. The list goes on and on.

What about the medical experts?

As I outlined in my ebook, Is it Wise to Specialize?, and something echoed in world renowned orthopedic surgeon James Andrew’s book, Any Given Monday, there are strong medical reasons for not specializing at a young age:

1. Children who specialize in a single sport account for 50 percent of overuse injuries in young athletes according to pediatric orthopedic specialists.

2. A study by Ohio State University found that children who specialized early in a single sport led to higher rates of adult physical inactivity. Those who commit to one sport at a young age are often the first to quit, and suffer a lifetime of consequences.

3. In a study of 1,200 youth athletes, Dr Neeru Jayanthi of Loyola University found that early specialization in a single sport is one of the strongest predictors of injury. Athletes in the study who specialized were 70 to 93 percent more likely to be injured than children who played multiple sports.

4. Children who specialize early are at a far greater risk for burnout due to stress, decreased motivation, and lack of enjoyment

5. Early sport specialization in female adolescents is associated with increased risk of anterior knee pain disorders including PFP, Osgood Schlatter and Sinding Larsen-Johansson compared to multi-sport athletes, and may lead to higher rates of future ACL tears.

And the sport scientists?

In January 2015, I had the honor of sitting in a lecture with Manchester United Performance Coach Tony Strudwick, winner of 13 titles as the fitness coach for Manchester United’s first team. His advice was that a multi-sport background sets up athletes for long-term success by lowering the rates of injuries and making them more adaptable to the demands of elite level play.
“More often than not,” he stated in a recent interview with SoccerWire.com, “the best athletes in the world are able to distinguish themselves from the pack thanks to a range of motor skills beyond what is typically expected in a given sport.” He recommended tumbling and gymnastic movements, as well as martial arts, basketball, and lacrosse as great crossover sports for soccer. Here are some other advantages:

1. Better overall skills and ability: Research shows that early participation in multiple sports leads to better overall motor and athletic development, longer playing careers, increased ability to transfer sports skills to other sports, as well as increased motivation, ownership of the sports experience, and confidence.

2. Smarter, more creative players: multi-sport participation at the youngest ages yields better decision making and pattern recognition, as well as increased creativity. These are all qualities that coaches of high-level teams look for.

3. Most College Athletes Come From a multi-sport Background: A 2013 American Medical Society for Sports Medicine survey found that 88 percent of college athletes surveyed participated in more than one sport as a child

4. 10,000 hours is not a rule: In his survey of the scientific literature regarding sport specific practice in The Sports Gene, author David Epstein finds that most elite competitors require far less than 10,000 hours of deliberate practice. Specifically, studies have shown that basketball (4,000), field hockey (4,000) and wrestling (6,000) all require far less than 10,000 hours.

5. There are many paths to mastery: A 2003 study on professional ice hockey players found that while most pros had spent 10,000 hours or more involved in sports prior to age 20, only 3,000 of those hours were involved in hockey-specific deliberate practice (and only 450 of those hours were prior to age 12).

Are all sports the same?

No, they are not. They each require specific athletic, technical, and tactical skill sets. Some sports, in order to be elite, require early specialization, such as gymnastics and figure skating. Other sports are so dependent upon physical prowess (American football, basketball, volleyball, rugby, and others) that the technical skills and tactical know-how can be developed later. There are many stories of athletes taking up these sports in their teens, even in their 20s, and playing at a very high level because of the ability to transfer skills learned in one sport to another.

And then there are sports like hockey and soccer, which without a doubt require an early introduction to the sport. There are technical movements and skills that are most sensitive to improvement prior to a child’s growth spurt, and it is unlikely that a post-pubescent child is able to catch up if that is their first introduction to the sport.

However, there is no evidence that pre-teen athletes in these sports should only play a single sport. As both the hockey evidence and the interview with Tony Strudwick mentioned above demonstrate, playing multiple sports early on sets these athletes up for longer-term success. They can better meet the demands of elite level play. They are less likely to get injured or burnout, and more likely to persist through the struggles needed to become a high-level performer.

If you want your child to play at a high-level, then the best thing you can do is help them find a sport that best suits their abilities, and help create an environment that gives them the best chance of success. That environment is a multi-sport one.

The evidence is in. It’s pretty conclusive. It’s time for our youth sports organizations to not only allow but encourage multi-sport participation. Yes, it’s tough on the bottom line. But ask yourself this: Is your bottom line worth more than the well-being of the children you have been entrusted with educating?

So what do you think? Should kids play multiple sports? Only one? If you think specialization is the right path prior to the teenage growth spurt (excluding gymnastics and figure skating), then by all means bring some evidence and links to the discussion. And if not, then how about some thoughts on how we can stand up and change the status quo that forces kids to choose far too young.

Thanks to Urban Meyer and the poignant image of his recruiting class breakdown, we now have the opportunity to have this discussion. We have the opportunity to serve our children better. We have the responsibility to help them become better athletes by encouraging them to become all-around athletes. And we can do this by letting them play multiple sports. Let the discussion begin.

Endurance skating is practicing slowness
In this case, after 35 second stop-start, his acceleration is half as fast.[/i]

By Jack Blatherwick
Let’s Play Hockey Columnist

During every physical movement, your brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves are learning. The (anatomical) structure is modified in order to memorize and repeat the exact range and speed of motion in training. This is especially true for young athletes in the years just before puberty and for the next 2-5 years (to learn more about adolescent brain-nervous system plasticity, start a search with either “Adolescent learning” by JN Giedd; or “White matter matters” by R Douglas Fields).

Changes to the nervous system have nothing to do with your stated intent; it’s all about the speed and quality of movement. What you repeat most often determines what you will become. If your endurance training is slow – and most endurance training is slow – these patterns are imprinted into your nervous system … permanently.

It is now possible to “see” these changes with modern (MRI and other scanning) technologies, but the concept is not new. We’ve known for decades that training is specific, meaning the final result looks and feels just like the training repetitions. This is why we practice the golf swing with as much quality as possible, using video or having a coach observe. We’d never think of intentionally repeating a bad swing over and over.

Therefore, it’s amazing that in every sport (except track) we have mindlessly accepted a tradition that endurance training should be mostly slow, when our objective is to play the game fast. If we thought about it for 10 seconds, we’d conclude that in hockey our conditioning program should prepare us to maintain – for an entire game – the highest quality skills at the fastest possible speed. But outside “experts” convinced us that long, slow aerobic training was necessary.

Our conditioning objectives became confused with those of middle-age fitness folks – aerobic training at a slow jogging pace – heart rates at a steady 70 percent of maximum. Instead, hockey practices and off-ice conditioning should feature speed, with high-intensity intervals. Peak heart rates reach maximum, and might not drop below 70 percent during recovery. This resembles the endurance challenges of a game.

But endurance conditioning in youth hockey is not as high a priority as it might be in college or the NHL. Stick skills, playmaking, skating fundamentals, quickness and agility are much more important at young ages when these fine motor skills can still be learned. Therefore, coaches should never sacrifice quality skating skill with the thought that conditioning-skating needs to be a slow, torturous grind. Stops-and-starts and agility or flow drills at top speed should not last more than 10 seconds, and rest intervals must be adequate – but just barely (40-60 seconds).

Long, hard (40-second) conditioning-skates only teach the central nervous system to remember slow feet, inadequate knee bend, weak extension, inefficient posture and excessive arm swing – all resulting in slow acceleration. This is like practicing terrible golf swings over and over for decades. In that regard, my CNS became a repetitive machine.

This is a very good article about the stage of brain development in the teenage years and it explains a lot about risky behaviour.

The Terrible Teens What’s wrong with them?
By Elizabeth Kolbert

Terrible Teens (link to article)
http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/08/31/the-terrible-teens

The New Yorker

In adolescence, the brain is wired to experience pleasure more intensely than before or after.

C57BL/6J mice are black, with pink ears and long pink tails. Inbred for the purposes of experimentation, they exhibit a number of infelicitous traits, including a susceptibility to obesity, a taste for morphine, and a tendency to nibble off their cage mates’ hair. They’re also tipplers. Given access to ethanol, C57BL/6J mice routinely suck away until the point that, were they to get behind the wheel of a Stuart Little-size roadster, they’d get pulled over for D.U.I.

Not long ago, a team of researchers at Temple University decided to take advantage of C57BL/6Js’ bad habits to test a hunch. They gathered eighty-six mice and placed them in Plexiglas cages, either singly or in groups of three. Then they spiked the water with ethanol and videotaped the results.

Half of the test mice were four weeks old, which, in murine terms, qualifies them as adolescents. The other half were twelve-week-old adults. When the researchers watched the videos, they found that the youngsters had, on average, outdrunk their elders. More striking still was the pattern of consumption. Young male C57BL/6Js who were alone drank roughly the same amount as adult males. But adolescent males with cage mates went on a bender; they spent, on average, twice as much time drinking as solo boy mice and about thirty per cent more time than solo girls.

The researchers published the results in the journal Developmental Science. In their paper, they noted that it was “not possible” to conduct a similar study on human adolescents, owing to the obvious ethical concerns. But, of course, similar experiments are performed all the time, under far less controlled circumstances. Just ask any college dean. Or ask a teen-ager. I happen to have three adolescent sons and in this way recently learned about a supposedly fun pastime known as a “case race.” Participants form teams of two and compete to see which pair can drink its way through a case of beer the fastest. (To get the most out of the experience, I was told, it’s best to use a “thirty rack.”)

Every adult has gone through adolescence, and studies have shown that if you ask people to look back on their lives they will disproportionately recall experiences they had between the ages of ten and twenty-five. (This phenomenon is called the “reminiscence bump.”) And yet, to adults, the adolescent mind is a mystery—a Brigadoon-like place that’s at once vivid and inaccessible. Why would anyone volunteer to down fifteen beers in a row? Under what circumstances could Edward Fortyhands, an activity that involves having two forty-ounce bottles of malt liquor affixed to your hands with duct tape, be construed as enjoyable? And what goes for drinking games also goes for hooking up with strangers, jumping from high places into shallow pools, and steering a car with your knees. At moments of extreme exasperation, parents may think that there’s something wrong with their teen-agers’ brains. Which, according to recent books on adolescence, there is.

Frances Jensen is a mother, an author, and a neurologist. In “The Teenage Brain: A Neuroscientist’s Survival Guide to Raising Adolescents and Young Adults” (HarperCollins), written with Amy Ellis Nutt, she offers a parenting guide laced with the latest MRI studies. By her account, adolescents suffer from the cerebral equivalent of defective spark plugs.

“When we think of ourselves as civilized, intelligent adults, we really have the frontal and prefrontal parts of the cortex to thank,” she writes. But “teens are not quite firing on all cylinders when it comes to the frontal lobes.” Thus, “we shouldn’t be surprised by the daily stories we hear and read about tragic mistakes.”

“The Teenage Brain” retails a number of such stories, including several involving Jensen’s sons, Andrew and Will. One is about Will’s totalling of the family’s Dodge. (He miscalculates the time he has to make a left turn.) Another features Andrew, his girlfriend, and another girl, who has passed out in the back of their car. The two conscious adolescents keep hoping the third one will wake up. Jensen insists that they take the girl to a nearby hospital. There her stomach gets pumped; it turns out that she has downed seventeen Jell-O shots—perhaps more, she can’t really remember. Then, there’s the story of Dan, “an all-around great kid,” who, one summer night, gets drunk and, together with a bunch of friends, scales the fence at the local tennis club to take a 3 a.m. swim. The friends get out, get dressed, and rescale the fence, only to discover that Dan is no longer with them. When they return to the pool, they find him lying face down in it. (Readers will be reassured to learn that Will and Andrew, at least, made it through high school in one piece and went on to graduate from Harvard and Wesleyan, respectively.)

The frontal lobes are the seat of what’s sometimes called the brain’s executive function. They’re responsible for planning, for self-awareness, and for judgment. Optimally, they act as a check on impulses originating in other parts of the brain. But in the teen years, Jensen points out, the brain is still busy building links between its different regions. This process involves adding myelin around the axons, which conduct electrical impulses. (Myelin insulates the axons, allowing impulses to travel faster.) It turns out that the links are built starting in the back of the brain, and the frontal lobes are one of the last regions to get connected. They are not fully myelinated until people are in their twenties, or even thirties.

This is where parents step in. “You need to be your teens’ frontal lobes until their brains are fully wired,” Jensen writes. By this she seems to mean near-constant hectoring. Whenever she hears a story like the one about Dan, she rushes to tell Will and Andrew, and, whenever Will and Andrew screw up, she uses it as an opportunity to remind them that they, too, could wind up floating face down in a pool. (After the unconscious girl has been dropped off at the hospital, Jensen relates, she sits Andrew and his girlfriend down at the kitchen table and lectures them about “blood alcohol levels and the effects on coordination and consciousness.”) As a matter of principle, Jensen has attached a lock to the liquor cabinet in her own home. When her sons are invited to someone else’s house, she calls the kid’s parents to make sure there will be no unsupervised fun.

I feel compelled to confess that whenever I hear a grisly story involving a dead or maimed teen-ager, I, like Jensen, pass it on to my sons. However, I also feel I should point out that, in a book packed with charts and statistics, Jensen provides no empirical evidence that scare tactics work. From personal experience, I can say that the immediate response is not always encouraging. When I asked my sixteen-year-old twins how they’d react if I called their friends’ moms to enforce safe-party protocols, one of them said, “Why even have kids if you’re going to do that?”

Laurence Steinberg is a professor of psychology at Temple, a father, and the lead researcher on the inebriated-mouse study. He is also the author of “Age of Opportunity: Lessons from the New Science of Adolescence” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt). Like Jensen, he believes that teen-age brains are different from yours and mine. But, where Jensen identifies the problem as loosely connected frontal lobes, Steinberg sees it as an enlarged nucleus accumbens.

Consider the following scenario. One afternoon, you’re sitting in your office with wads of cotton stuck up your nose. (For the present purposes, it’s not important to know why.) Someone in your office has just baked a batch of chocolate-chip cookies. The aroma fills the air, but, since your nose is plugged, you don’t notice and continue working. Suddenly you sneeze, and the cotton gets dislodged. Now the smell hits, and you rush over to gobble up one cookie, then another.

According to Steinberg, adults spend their lives with wads of cotton in their metaphorical noses. Adolescents, by contrast, are designed to sniff out treats at a hundred paces. During childhood, the nucleus accumbens, which is sometimes called the “pleasure center,” grows. It reaches its maximum extent in the teen-age brain; then it starts to shrink. This enlargement of the pleasure center occurs in concert with other sensation-enhancing changes. As kids enter puberty, their brains sprout more dopamine receptors. Dopamine, a neurotransmitter, plays many roles in the human nervous system, the sexiest of which is signalling enjoyment.

“Nothing—whether it’s being with your friends, having sex, licking an ice-cream cone, zipping along in a convertible on a warm summer evening, hearing your favorite music—will ever feel as good as it did when you were a teenager,” Steinberg observes. And this, in turn, explains why adolescents do so many stupid things. It’s not that they are any worse than their elders at assessing danger. It’s just that the potential rewards seem—and, from a neurological standpoint, genuinely are—way, way greater. “The notion that adolescents take risks because they don’t know any better is ludicrous,” Steinberg writes.

Teen-agers are, as a rule, extremely healthy—healthier than younger children. But their death rate is much higher. The mortality rate for Americans between fifteen and nineteen years old is nearly twice what it is for those between the ages of one and four, and it’s more than three times as high as for those ages five to fourteen. The leading cause of death among adolescents today is accidents; this is known as the “accident hump.”

Steinberg explains the situation as the product of an evolutionary mismatch. To find mates, our primate ancestors had to venture outside their natal groups. The reward for taking chances in dangerous terrain was sex followed by reproduction, while the cost of sensibly staying at home was genetic oblivion. Adolescents in 2015 can find partners by swiping right on Tinder; nevertheless, they retain the neurophysiology of apes (and, to a certain extent, mice). Teen-agers are, in this sense, still swinging through the rain forest, even when they’re speeding along in a Tundra. They’re programmed to take crazy risks, so that’s what they do.

This is especially the case when teen-agers get together. A teen driving with other teens in the car, for example, is four times as likely to crash as a teen driving alone. (The risk for adult drivers, by contrast, remains constant with passengers or without them.) This effect is often attributed to distraction or peer pressure; kids, the story goes, egg each other on, until, finally, they wind up in the E.R. But Steinberg, who has conducted all sorts of experiments on adolescents, both human and rodent, sees the problem as more fundamental. What matters is the mere presence of peers, or really even just the idea of them.

In one experiment, Steinberg asked subjects to play a video game that simulated ordinary driving. He found that teens took more risks when their friends were around—by, for instance, running yellow lights—whether or not they could communicate with them. In another experiment, Steinberg told his subjects that their actions were being watched by other adolescents, in another room, when in fact the other room was empty. The results were the same. Mice, for their part, can’t taunt other mice or call them wusses; still, the presence of peers is enough to stimulate risky behavior. Brain-imaging studies show that being watched by friends activates teens’ reward centers; this, Steinberg theorizes, primes them to seek out still more rewards, which leads them to do things like duct-tape malt-liquor bottles to their hands. “In fact, the recklessness-enhancing effect of being around peers is strongest when adolescents actually know there is a high probability of something bad happening,” he writes.

My twins spent most of the month of August attending a driver’s-ed course at the local high school. We live in western Massachusetts, and state law requires kids to have thirty hours of classroom instruction before they take the road test, though if they are willing to wait until they turn eighteen they can skip the course. My twins are now old enough to have sex legally in Massachusetts, but across the border in New York the age of consent is seventeen. Here, I am happy to report, they cannot possess a handgun; up the road a couple of miles, in Vermont, a sixteen-year-old can. A year from now, my kids will, with my permission, be able to join the Army. But they still won’t be able to vote, or operate a forklift, or get a job at a sawmill, or buy a pack of cigarettes. It will be more than four years before they can sit down at a bar and order a beer.

The tangle of laws that apply to adolescents bespeaks a generalized confusion. Lawmakers can’t seem to decide whether they think teen-agers are under-informed or overly impulsive or just klutzy. A clearer account of “the teen-age brain” would have far-ranging policy implications, though not necessarily the sort that either teens or legislators would be happy about.

Take my kids’ driver’s-ed classes. From Steinberg’s perspective, allowing sixteen-year-olds to get a license in return for sitting through lectures and doing some practice driving completely misses the point. Sixteen-year-olds are dangerous drivers. Their rate of fatal crashes per mile is three times as high as the rate for drivers age twenty and over, and nearly twice as high as the rate for drivers eighteen and nineteen. Sixteen-year-olds will still be a hazard after listening (or, more likely, not listening) to thirty hours’ worth of cautionary tales. They actually do understand that driving is dangerous; the problem is that they’re having too much fun to care. The only way to bring down their accident rate is to prevent them from getting behind the wheel.

“If we were genuinely concerned about improving adolescents’ health, raising the driving age would be the single most important policy change we could make,” Steinberg writes. He favors a minimum age of eighteen.

Much the same logic applies to drinking, smoking, and doing drugs. Each year, the U.S. spends hundreds of millions of dollars on public-service campaigns designed to alert adolescents to the perils of such dissipations. Hundreds of millions—perhaps billions—more are spent reiterating this message in high-school health classes. The results have been, to put it kindly, underwhelming. A 2006 study by the Government Accountability Office found that $1.4 billion that the federal government had allocated to an anti-drug media campaign aimed at young people had had no perceptible impact. According to Steinberg, this sort of money would have been better spent on sports or arts programs that keep adolescents busy and under adult supervision.

Even violence looks different viewed through the lens of neurology. Crime rates rise steeply starting around age thirteen. They peak at age eighteen and then start to fall again. When the statistics are presented in the form of a graph, the result—the so-called age-crime curve—looks like the Matterhorn. This pattern has been noted for more than a century (it was described back in 1904, by G. Stanley Hall, a psychologist who is sometimes credited with having “invented” adolescence), and it holds true not just in the U.S. but wherever crime figures are kept.

Both Steinberg and Jensen make the case that the violence hump, too, is a function of weak frontal lobes and oversensitive pleasure centers. And both argue against decades-long sentences for youthful offenders. Steinberg maintains an active side career as an expert witness for the defense; Jensen is a co-author on a brief submitted in a 2012 Supreme Court case involving two fourteen-year-olds who had been convicted of murder. In the brief, she and her colleagues asserted that “adolescent criminal conduct frequently results from experimentation with risky behavior and not from deep-seated moral deficiency reflective of ‘bad’ character.” The Supreme Court ultimately ruled that states could not impose mandatory sentences of life without parole on defendants under eighteen, though courts could impose such sentences on convicted murderers if they chose to.

Many recent innovations—cars, Ecstasy, iPhones, S.U.V.s, thirty racks, semi-automatic weapons—exacerbate the mismatch between teen-agers’ brains and their environment. Adolescents today face temptations that teens of earlier eras, not to mention primates or rodents, couldn’t have dreamed of. In a sense, they live in a world in which all the water bottles are spiked. And so, as Jensen and Steinberg observe, they run into trouble time and time again.

But perhaps, it occurred to me the other day after one of my twins nearly plowed into a mailbox, to look at the problem this way is to peer through the wrong end of the MRI machine. Yes, adolescents in the twenty-first century pose a great risk to others and, statistically speaking, an even greater risk to themselves. But this is largely because other terrifying risks—scarlet fever, diphtheria, starvation, smallpox, plague—have receded. Adolescence evolved over a vast expanse of time when survival at any age was a crapshoot. If the hazards are new, so, too, is the safety. Which is why I will keep telling my kids scary stories and why they will continue to ignore them. ?

I really like this article.
------------------------------------------------------
by Dr. Tim Elmore, 25 July 2014

Several years ago, I met with a university student, pondering how to provide some difficult feedback on a project he’d just finished. We’ll call him Zach. Zach was a smart young man, but, like so many from Generation iY (the youngest Millennials), he was fragile when it came to taking constructive criticism. Zach is among the millions of kids who got awards just for playing sports, special marks just for completing a school project, praise for merely meeting minimum standards, and money just for being a part of his family. All of this has hindered him from being able to handle less than rave reviews from supervisors.

My meeting was no different.

As I ventured into the conversation, I began with positive remarks on his progress. I affirmed everything I could. As soon as I got honest about his unsatisfactory (even unacceptable) work, however, his entire demeanor changed. He bristled and began to defend his performance. Then, he actually turned on me. I became the enemy and he was the victim. He lashed out at me, and told me everyone else was on “his side” and believed in him. He actually reviewed the litany of awards he’d won in his past as if to convince himself he was special. (Interpretation: I was a lone critic, aggressor, and most certainly mistaken). In the end, I don’t think he heard me. He was emotionally disabled from consuming helpful, corrective feedback.

The Secret That Enabled Me to Improve

Every coach or teacher knows there’s no moment more important than the one when feedback is delivered. Do it well, and the learner makes progress. Do it poorly, and the opposite happens. We assume the secret to effective feedback is the quality of the information we share: Do this, or don’t do that, and you’ll be better. But this may not be the case.

Daniel Coyle is a member of a team of psychologists from Stanford, Yale and Columbia who set out to explore this issue, and what they uncovered is that helpful feedback had far more to do with “how” than “what.” They asked middle school teachers to give a writing assignment to their students, and afterward, give the students various types of feedback. To their surprise, the researchers discovered there was one particular type of remark that improved student effort so much, they called it “magical.” Students who received this feedback chose to revise their paper far more often than students who did not—a 40 percent increase among white students and a 320 percent boost for black students. In the end, it improved their performances significantly.

What was that magical remark? Just one simple phrase:

“I’m giving you these comments because I have very high expectations and I know you can reach them.”

That’s it. Nineteen simple words that carry weight because they communicate the exact opposite of what students hear when we critique them any other way. According to Dan Coyle, “they are a signal that creates something powerful: a sense of belonging and connection.”

When we examine them closely, the phrase contains several distinct signals:

You are part of this group or team.
This team is special; we have high standards here.
I believe you can reach those standards.

The secret is to understand that this feedback isn’t just feedback. It’s a vital cue about the relationship. The reason it works so well is about how our brains are wired. It’s normal to become guarded when attacked. Our effort is very personal, and we naturally want to defend it. When we receive authentic, clear signals of trust, belonging and expectation, however, the floodgates open. Feedback offered this way pulls the student toward you rather than repelling them. It’s the difference between saying: “What’s wrong with you?” and “You’re better than this.”

My Suggestions for You

Today’s adults have raised a fragile generation. Constant praise and rewards that are not connected to reality have actually hindered their maturation. This kind of research enables coaches or teachers to move the needle and enable them to grow. Kids are capable of so much more than they’re currently showing us—because we set the bar low. Consider these “takeaways” as action steps of this research:

Build a connection first. Ensure your students know you believe in them.
Spotlight the team and it’s special persona and characteristics.
Communicate expectations up front and remind students of them.
Relay to each individual that they belong on this team; they’re worthy.
Don’t soft pedal high standards. Don’t pretend it’s easy.
Embrace the challenge with your students. Show them you’re up for the challenge of meeting those standards too.

If we treat kids as fragile, they will most assuredly become fragile adults. But if we communicate they’re worthy of high standards, they will rise to the occasion.

Millennials will soon will be your bosses.


Millennials have grown up in a time of rapid change and technological advances giving them a different view of the world from previous generations. Therefore their approach to leadership is likely to be very different...

Here are five leadership rules I describe in my book that you can expect Millennials to find as natural to implement as hooking up on Tinder with someone for one night.

1. Lead with Purpose

Great leaders are dedicated to a higher calling. They actually give a shit and want to do something big, bold and meaningful in the world.

2. Ask, don’t tell

Leaders in the new world will appreciate the true meaning of empowerment, creativity and collaboration. Their conversations will be adult-to-adult; we will see less command and control, as it is not the world Millenials have experienced growing up.

3. Create leaders not followers

Millenials want to contribute to the strategic direction, they will expect others to do the same and therefore provide space to lead, autonomy and freedom to make values driven decisions.

4. Embrace failure

We all know that the best way learn is to fail hard. Millennials will be entrepreneurial and prepared to take a risks, fail fast and learn quickly.

5. Hold each other accountable

In the new world peer to peer coaching and feedback won't be a fad it will be a natural form of communication widely used and expected. Good leaders hold their people accountable, great leaders will create a culture where team members hold each other accountable.

What has been your experience as a Millennial or working with Millennials?

Re: Making Drills More Effective

Making Drills More Effective

I am watching lots of teams practicing this week as Hockey Canada has 6 U17 teams, 2 U20, and now U18 are starting and at another arena the Czech and Russian U20 teams are practicing. Lot of coaches and the drills range from great and effective with lots of reps, intensity and little down time to standing around, listening to the coach babble on and getting hardly an reps.

Here are some of the things the more effective coaches do here and other places I have witnessed. (I have watched practices run by coaches from all the countries in the top group at the IIHF Championships and traveled to most of these countries and been on the ice during practices.)

Some Ideas that World Class Coaches Use

How many times during a season will your players get a 1-0 or 2-0 like most shooting drills are. How many times do your goalies get unobstructed shots from right in front of the net?

I would guess that unless your players aren't good enough for he league they are in, these situations don't happen very often.

Here are some thought on how to use drills to make your players better in game situations.

A. Shoot from all three lanes and not just in the middle.

B. Shoot while skating and follow the shot for a rebound - practice various shots.

C. Have a coach or player take about 20 shots at various spots to warm up the goalie while the players do warm up skating, puck handling, passing.

D. Add tasks to shooting drills:
- Shoot, follow the shot, circle back and screen for the next shooter.

- Shoot, follow the shot and then get in position to give and go for the next shooter this involves two players..

- Do both, first look for the rebound and then get into position to give and go this involves three players.

- Shoot and follow the shot, circle out to cover the next shooter and play either a soft or aggressive 1-1, then rebound for the next shooter - three players.

- Combine everything: Shoot - defend vs. the next shooter, rebound for the next shooter, pass to the next shooter. 4 players and now you are practicing three of the 4 game playing roles, 1-player with the puck, 2-support by getting open for a return pass, 3-covering the pass receiver.

You are also eliminating down time standing in line. Players should only be waiting in line to recover for the next rep and not because the drill in inefficient.

I would love to video one player for 60 minutes from two practices and see how much meaningful activity they do. The average in one hour is moving 7-11 minutes and standing around inactively for 49-53 minutes.

A great example of creating a routine with lots of reps that practice individual skills as well as a breakout pass is one that the Czech U20 team uses as a warm-up at the start of practice.

How Players Learn - Mike Sullivan

This is a really good presentation by Mike Sullivan at one of the USA hockey symposiums. He is the director of player development for Chicago. He talks about many of the concepts that have been promoted on this site for years.

Mike goes over the physiology of how we learn and the need to make mistakes and practice by challenging the edge of our skill limitations (progressive overload) and the necessity to learn how to read the game and anticipate the next play in all 3 game situations and all 4 game playing roles.

Mike gives some examples of the top down approach and using game situations that automatically teach the game. I will attach a pdf on games and another on transition games

Tom what are your thoughts on Practice Format. Is there many differences in a U12 practice from North America to the Europeans? Did they cover this subject in your latest Coaching Conference? Thank you Tom

I would love to hear from all the Coaches on this site. ***Lets help each other ***

This is what I usually do. U12

1. 5 min Free time
2. 8 min Shooting/Passing full ice
3. 24 min break into 3 stations (skating - puck control - Scoring )
4. 20 min 2 half ice game situation drills
5. 12 min Games to Teach the Game

Peter, it changes by country and coach. Generally the practices are similar to what you mention but most coaches would do more game situation than you have outlined. The younger the player the more SAG's they play and U10 never play full ice in most countries. I posted a Swedish U12 practice a few years ago with a Regional Coach Anders Ottosson http://www.hockeycoachingabcs.com/forum/viewtopic.php?showtopic=578&topic=578#578 . It is on the site.

Lots of countries practice in 5 man units and the drills are done with each other. Older teams have 4 units of 5 and two goalies.

I posted a Czech skills practice that I watched while I was in Prague at the World's a few weeks ago and it is a six station sixty minute skills practice with two cross ice games at the end. It was run by Ludek Bukac Jr. http://www.hockeycoachingabcs.com/mediagallery/media.php?f=0&sort=0&s=20150512105135752

I have always fournd that in NA we work on defense a lot and our players learn offense practicing against the defense. In Europe they tend to work on offense a lot and the players learn defense while they are practicing offense.
