Testimonials

I have played and watched hockey for over 50 years and thought I understood the game pretty well. It wasn't until I started reading your books that I truly understood the strategies and nuances of the game. Your books have really upped my game. - P.F.

I've loved hockey my entire life and just this year began coaching my son's U7 team. While I assumed that this type of material may be too much for him, I was completely wrong. Your ebook has not only significantly helped his growth as a player, but my own as a coach and communicator. - J.V.

In the years we've worked together, you've had a real impact on my son's development. You presents an angle we don't always see, but more often than not it's exactly what we need. - S.V. (father of QMJHL player Philippe Veilleux)

You've kept us anxious parents level-headed so that we don't lose focus on what really matters long-term. - H.H. (father of NHL draft pick & NCAA D1 commit Alex Huang)

My son plays on the Singapore national team. We have no federation funding and one ice rink in the entire country. Your book helped me understand structure/systems that I implemented as a volunteer coach, bringing Singapore a bronze medal at the IIHF World Championships in our inaugural tourney and a silver medal at the IIHF U20 tourney in the same year. Thank you. - A.C.
