I think this is such an important clip for parents to watch and it was a big part of our podcast conversation with former NHL’ers Dustin Kohn and Nick Johnson who are now working in sport psychology with kids. As a parent, if your kid’s hockey career is the most important thing in YOUR life, what message does that send to your kid? If you are putting so much pressure on YOURSELF relating to your kid’s journey, what message does that send to your kid?
So impactful. Give this a listen.

If you have a few moments to listen to this interview as a parent with your child.
Possible one of the best post race interviews I have ever watched #PlayOn

Paul Maurice has preached “Enjoy your Day” to his team for the last two seasons.
“If you can’t enjoy this morning, what’s the point of this?” #StanleyCup

“You guys impacted so many people this year in a positive way. All the joy you brought to people, all the kids that you helped. That’s what it’s all about. Yes, you would have loved a shiny trophy, but the impact you had on young women in this sport doesn’t get tarnished,” Lisa Bluder

Coaches are in it for the WRONG reasons if they:
Demean/manipulate players
Are disrespectful
Place winning above all
Play faves
Don’t teach the game
Ignore injuries
Play head games
Talk behind players backs
Blame players for losses
Take credit for successes
Think it’s about them

Coaching is a service industry. How kids experience coaching does more good or more damage than most people can imagine. How coaches make kids feel impacts many areas of their lives: how they learn/grow, their perception of authority & in turn, their futures. Serve the kids well!

Your body & mind can handle so much more than you realize. Everything you endure & fight through makes you tougher. Resiliency develops by meeting adversity head on & overcoming it. Mental strength grows each time you face life’s challenges. Don’t ever run from it. Learn from it!

Djokovic as classy in defeat today as it gets. Worth a watch if only to remind us all what true sportsmanship looks like.

Director of Player development for @NHLJets on the importance of building relationships at Dev. camp. He talks about putting your phone down at dinner and talking to the guy across from you. We all want a "good culture", it starts with good people and strong relationships.

Athletes should train their minds just as much as they train their bodies. Likewise, coaches should teach mental skills just as much as they teach physical skills.
