@edmonddantes64 sadly for me, i had a career ending injury in my second year in the ECHL which is a minor affiliate to the AHL. It basically goes NHL, AHL and ECHL. It turned out though, that if you apply yourself, you can do what you want to do as long as you apply yourself. It goes for everything in life too. I've been plagued with a bad knee and I do have to live with that, but i do all i can to stay in shape and who knows maybe i might get another shot, after knee surgery of course.

@edmonddantes64 It's true some are born with it, but many can take what has been given to them and push it even further. For me, I'm a natural baseball player, i started at a very young age, my father was a baseball player. I never really had to really try hard it was just given talent. But as much as i loved baseball, i loved hockey too, so i pursued it and at first i never thought i'd never do anything but play house league which is nothing. I ended my career playing pro and got drafted

@edmonddantes64 skate as fast or hit harder than i did when i actually took it seriously. Any athlete can step their game if they have the dedication and willingness to push themselves. There are ton's of players who have made the NHL that realistically, never should have. Look at Martin St.louis, he is undersized and everyone say he would make it. But here he is, with a stanley cup ring. Theo fluery too, same thing, too small and not skilled enough

@edmonddantes64 well not really. I played hockey for 15 years, my first 12 years was spent as just a guy who could barrell through the opposition, i was in no form a great hockey player. Once i was 16 i got a rude awakening when everyone started to catch up, people were faster, more physical and stronger. Right there i decided to dedicate my summers to hard training and increase my strength, my speed. Overall my whole game, i took it to another level. I never thought i could actually

@edmonddantes64 it's like the old saying, those who can't play, coach, and those who can't coach....well they become gym teachers lol

@edmonddantes64 it's for agility and acceleration stronger push shorter strides. it should only take you 3 good strides to get going. Obviously you've never had the sort of rigorous training to understand the concept. Everything has a purpose in training whether it's physical or mental. It's to prepare. I've spent hours on a balance ball just to help my balance on skates. I've skated through sticks, i've turned, pivoted and turned more times in my life than i've prolly gone to the toilet

i was a good athlete and I like kids. Most good athletes are terrible coaches in their sports(gretzky,jordan) They just don't know how to explain something that came so naturally for them and they get mad when other athletes just can't "Float through the air for 30 feet and slam the ball over 2 defensemen.
But i see you explain things to the kids in these vids(over and over with the kid behind you till he just didnt do it but did it right)
not just practice. perfect practice nice!
What does skating forward over a bunch of sticks supposed to do, but shorten your stride?
So many of things in sports training have no basis in physiology and/o science in general. Myth.
I do like the idea of skating with a tire attached to me!!

@edmonddantes64 Thanks for the comment. The drill where a skater runs fast through sticks, helps young players not only be more comfortable on his/her skates and also develops stronger ankle joints but to be more explosive from the dead start. If you have ever seen a player by the name Pavel Bure skating, you would realize that he wasn't the fastest skater on ice.Though, due to his lightning fast foot work from nearly standing still position, NO ONE (for most part) could ever catch him. Peace :)
