Hard Core Hockey by Rand Pecknold

Hockey's best coaches give you the skills for skating to the big ice. Prime time for hockey is at 7:30 on Friday and Saturday nights. That's the sacred hour set aside for elite players. It's not for peewees or weekend warriors. It's for the best of the best. So the question is: What do you have to do to play prime time? The authors of Hard-Core Hockey took this question to the toughest and winningest NCAA Division I coaches in the country-and they came back with all the answers. With nearly 150 instructional photos and illustrations and tons of drills, elite coaches such as Dave Peters of Dartmouth, George Gwozdecky of the University of Colorado, Bruce Marshall of the University of Connecticut, and many more teach you how to: Stickhandle, skate, and shoot for maximum scoringMaster the butterfly-to-butterfly save Control the gap Block shots as if you were a stone wallMake the most of power plays and penalty killsAttract the attention of recruitersAnd much more
