More About Coach Nick
I have coached athletes ranging from ages 7 to 30+, developing players from youth through professional levels, including those competing in the NTDP, AHL, NHL, USHL, BCHL, NAHL, and more.
Played professionally in the AHL, ECHL, ICEHL, Alsvenskan
3 time NCAA All American
New England Hockey Journal Cover Athlete
Boston Bruins Development camp 2018
Typically, I begin sessions with activation exercises for both the hands and feet, incorporating quick edge work and stick-handling drills. From there, the progression depends on the client’s consistency. For new or occasional clients, the focus may be on introducing fundamental skating, stick-handling, and shooting skills. For ongoing clients, each session is designed to build upon the previous one, ensuring steady development. The objective of a single-session skate is to present the game from a different perspective, encouraging the athlete to approach it with a new mindset and broaden their understanding. For consistent clients, the training is structured to progressively build skills and concepts, ultimately helping the athlete reach their full potential.
