Episode 1: Science, Sleep and Peter Forsberg
We kick off Season 2 of the Hockey Factories podcast by looking at how science has crept into the sports world, maybe nowhere as clearly as Zug in Switzerland.
Dumouchelle gets to fan-girl a bit talking about skills that are becoming more prevalent like read and react, and another that we seem to be losing because of the overwhelming increase of individual skills training.
Episode 2: The Next Wave
Episode 2 of Season 2 of the Hockey Factories podcast takes a look at development through the eyes of the player. What are they looking for in a program and what have they experienced that has helped them become the players they are?
We get insight on what Draft Day is like for several 1st round picks, including a historic run by Djurgardens and we hear how a conversation with a GM changed the course of a legendary Canadian coach's career.
