These tips are incredible. I talk about hockey just about everyday, and these tips are the best I have heard. You must hear these tips if your serious about Goaltending. I had to break the goaltending interview down into 5 sections, two of which are here in part 1. This is a repeat episode in honor of Ken Dryden and hard working goalies everywhere.

OK ! Let's Get Back To Hockey ! Play Harder and Control Your Puck !

Here's a Great Charity Organization ,Resto-vie being helped by the PeeWee BB Buccaneers. The first hockey team I know to get involved, hopefully one of many. My Hat is off to Eugene Dube, who as George Springate mentioned in the news recently, found himself to be the last man standing in the kitchen this summer. Thankfully he found the strength and determination to carry-on and continue providing meals, approximately 80,000 per year. This picture is Eugene Dube with the Coach of the PeeWee Bucs Yvan Maldonado.

For Family,Friends and Fans, here are the LSL Lions Midget AAA 1st Half and Tournament Winners, show again how to score on the opponent.

This Video Montage may be proof that Coach Danny Dupont may have a future outside of Hockey. These Guys manged to win the St Leonard Tournament at the Martin Brodeur Arena, earlier this month so here is the link.

November, 2006 - LIONS DOMINATE AT SAINT LEONARD TOURNAMENT
The Lac St. Louis Lions Midget AAA team took part in the 33 annual Saint Leonard Tournament from September 1-5. The Lions won the tournament convincingly outscoring their opposition in the preliminary rounds 19-2. In the Semi-final game played Sunday morning the Lions came out flying and defeated the Laurentides Vikings 4-0 allowing them to move on to the finals to play Laval Bourassa.

The final on Sunday afternoon was a hotly contested affair with Laval-Bourassa jumping out to a first shift lead on a tough bounce that Matthew Dopud could not get a handle on. The Lions throughout the period clearly were the better team but despite some sustained pressure they could not put one into the Laval-Bourassa net.

My personal opinion is that you may see this team in the Midget AAA National Tournament this year representing Quebec like the Patriots did last year.
Best of Luck Lions !!!

OK, Here's a great video clip Tip for Hockey Players. My son seen always in his orange gloves, scored a hat trick just hours after Sean's on-ice session. Maybe it's just a coincidence, it could be the orange gloves after all.
Enjoy this Tip from Sean at

Special thanks to the Dollard BUCS and PIRATES for making the video that much better.

Here's a great interview with Sean Skinner from,
www.stickhandling.com
He's been all over the world teaching kids about hockey.
We were lucky enough to catch-up with him here in Montreal, at the Dollard Arena. www.dollardhockey.com
Here's a few things Sean has been doing,

The Bucs players show how to breakout of the defensive zone by making a quick pass to the forward with speed. Thanks again to P.J. Stock for the reminder and to the Bucs as well for demonstrating how speed is changing hockey.

Thanks to PJ Stock at www.Team990.com for the reminder,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P.J._Stock

(P.J. has been Entertaining and Vocal about the NHL since he had his first spot on Melnyk's show as a guest. Yesterday he was a guest on Michael Lansberg's show Off The Record, which is also Linked on this page at the right under Podroll.)

Today I am talking about the Quick Zone Breakout and how the new rules will help the offensive attack.

Make sure the Defense practices the Breakout Pass by hitting the rushing Forward at Full Speed. If the Forwards generate enough speed they will not be stopped until they reach the offensive zone.

I am hoping to put together a video to illustrate this possibility soon.

This penalty is the one to avoid. Here it is in an iTunes friendly format.

Thanks for the attention this month. We have had an incredible increase in the number of Page Views and Downloads. They have been from Seattle and Vancouver to Colorado, Detriot, Boston, Toronto, Montreal even Isreal, India, and China, Imagine that !

Reducing penalties is the best way to improve your team play and gain an advantage over the opposition.

The penalties can be avoided and your team will have more ice time to score goals. You may even end up with more powerplays since many teams are still playing old style hockey and taking silly penalties. I can not stress this advantage enough, too many teams are slow to pick-up on this change in hockey.

Again many thanks for your support of Sports Podcasts !

Congratulations for a great beginning to The Management Team,Danny and his Coaching Staff, as well as the awsome Team of AAA Lions Players and their Parents. Thank You, Danny for taking the time to help improve youth hockey.

www.HockeyCanada.ca is making a big effort to have the penalties applied by the letter this year, and penalties are up big time.The good news, it may be simplier than you think to avoid these penalties.

There's going to be a lot of these penalties as well at the start of this season. Players will have to keep their sticks on the Ice, and off the other players. Find more penalties and information on the www.HockeyCanada.ca site.

Hear is the first podcast on what is going to be the hot topic of the start of the season. Penalties are going to be unbelievable. We will try to help out with some ideas on how to adjust the teams for the new rules that have filtered down from the NHL. Here is Interference as explained by Hockey Canada.

You can start to by checking-out the Hockey Canada's site.

They say it's a new game and I have to agree, many coaches are having a hard time recognizing the game, and we have just begun the season.

Congrats to Ken Dryden and Serge Savard who this week it was anounced that the Montreal Canadien will finally lift their jerseys to the rafters and retire their numbers.

Mark coached a great season. Listen to what he has to say about lacrosse. This sport is growing everywhere in North America. This sport combines Hitting with Basketball and Scoring. It's fast and exciting, so learn more about lacrosse right here. Thanks again to BNT.ca for the technical help.

Once the World's Largest Novice Tournament, The Traditions Continue. See what fun on ice looks like in the short video clip. Mike Ribeiro came by for the Pre-Novice Tournament and Jose Theodore was visiting the Novice Tournament. I would have liked to get a comment from him about the tournament, but the kids were already keeping him busy with precious things to be signed. Good Luck to all the teams. As a past organizer Mr. Wilson used to say "I wish they could all end in a tie".
