This week's 5 minute long episode promises to be a game-changer for young skaters and goalies as Lee addresses the importance of expressing gratitude and appreciation to parents or guardians.
We're flipping the script on our previous episode that advised parents on the key messages to share with their kids before a game. Now, it's the kids' turn to learn what they can say in return to acknowledge and appreciate their parents' support.
We dissect three powerful phrases - 'Thank you for supporting me,' 'I love playing hockey,' and 'I love you', reflecting on the positive impact they can have on parents. We delve into the sacrifices parents make and encourage the young ones to recognize this through simple acknowledgments.
So, strap in for this heartfelt ride to the rink, which wraps up with a reminder to relish the journey and the game we all love. And remember, the right words can make the ride to the rink even more enjoyable.

Imagine playing in D1 college, the world junior championships (and winning gold) and then competing in the Olympics in just 5 years. Then having an NHL and international career after.
Our guest, Adrien Plavsic, did just that. But above and beyond that impressive hockey resume, he is a great person who is dedicated to helping others.
You will hear about how he has dedicated his life to the mental fitness space and discuss how as a child he used his imagination (or what he now knows is visualization) to propel him towards reaching his goals.
A lot of gold (pun intended) in this one!

In this episode of the Performance Collective™ Podcast, Dr. Sinclair interviews the former professional NHL hockey player, hockey coach, and career entrepreneur, Lance Pitlick.
SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:
Lance was born in Minnesota, started playing youth hockey in 1986, played hockey for the University of Minnesota, and was drafted into the NHL in the 9th Round (180th Overall) to the Minnesota North Stars, and played 1st NHL Game at 27 Years Old. Lance had a 12-year professional hockey career that spanned 393 NHL Games as he played with the Ottawa Senators and the Florida Panthers.
Following his hockey career, Lance coached high school hockey for 17 years and retired as a Level 5 USA Hockey Master Coach. In 2009 Lance started providing private off-Ice stickhandling, passing, and shooting lessons with Pitlick Off-Ice Stickhandling and Shooting Training (sweethockeycoach.com). Additionally, Lance invented SweetHands Stick Handling and was the Trainer and Founder of Snipers Edge Hockey, which he sold in 2018.
In 2011, Lance launched Online Hockey Training.com (onlinehockeytraining.com), which houses the world's largest database of off-Ice stickhandling, passing, and shooting drill videos. In 2016 Lance’s dedication to building exceptional stickhandling skills drove him to teach himself how to stickhandle, pass, and shoot with his left (opposite) hand.
In 2022, Lance launched the Hockey Journey Podcast, where he has produced over 100 episodes detailing stories of successful hockey players.
Lance’s life objective is to help as many hockey players as he can to reach their hockey dreams. Both of Lance’s sons have been drafted into the NHL.
Hockey has evolved more than most realize over the past decade.
Boo Nieves (Former NY Ranger) has seen a lot of these changes first hand during his career and as a coach/trainer at his gym, Top Line Hockey. In this episode we discuss how youth players must grow their games beyond just the talent needed to play if they want to be successful.
