It’s always important to practice drills from both sides. So we’re not only comfortable in some situations. We want to be comfortable in all situations.

Game like drills can be worked on as well in the Training Pad

2007 working on a simple edge drill finishing with a shot.

Feeling comfortable is all about repetition. Not every shot will be great but that’s why we practice.

There’s many different ways to work on your feet and your release in the Training Pad

Keeping your bottom hand strong on back door passes is key on a quality shot.

Received a pretty thoughtful gift tonight from one of my clients. All of the games I played in the 2002 and 2005 Memorial Cups. Let me just say as a coach this is very hard to watch #2002memorialcup #2005memorialcup #ottawa67s #erieotters #doasisaynotasido

So proud of this young man. Jonah De Simone was the first client I ever had with BB hockey almost 10 years ago now. The amount of dedication and hard work this young man has put in over the years has been remarkable!! Hate to break it to you pal but that was just the beginning. Now the real work starts!! Super proud of you. Be in your corner always through your journey!! Let’s work!!!

BB Varsity spring squad and men’s league team are gonna look sharp this year!! Thanks to my pal @gitchsportswear who does it right!!!

This is a pic and write up from a player I battled against for 4 years in the ohl. We were the same type of player and makes a valid point here about a hockey helmet vs a football helmet. It’s a proven fact hockey players hit harder then football players. So does this make sense ???

It Was a pretty special day for this young man a few weeks ago when he was selected 70th overall in the OHL priority Selection by the Niagara Ice Dogs. I met him when he was a 6 year old kid and have helped him develop from the days he was doing snow angels on the ice to the young man he is today trying to live his dream. I’m proud to say Jonah was my First ever client and I wanted to give him a few small things to show my appreciation. it’s been an honour to watch you grow up into a great hockey player but more importantly a great young man Always in your corner pal!

Was great working with these young hockey players during our pre tryout camp! I wish all of you the best of luck!
