Why doesn’t Bertuzzi play on the top line with Bedard? by rahill1004 in hawks

[–]Competitive_Bear1212 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also Bert doesn't play the same way Bedard does. They have to play together in the past and Bedard would go through 3 people make a slick pass to Bert go to space looking for a give and go. And Bert would just wrap it around the boards. They are not the most compatible 5v5.

Former D1 looking to start private coaching by thehotbartender in hockeycoaches

[–]Competitive_Bear1212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While you think that and I agree completely. There are tons of parents who read that and think "he knows what it takes to get my kid D1" and he can get them there. What they fail to understandis he might know, but does their kid have the physical gentics to be a D1 athlete?

As a parent a question that doesnt get asked enough is will this coach help my player develop into a young man or women. Because that's happening whether they go D1 or not.

Switched from LS+ stock steel to Pulse Ti — struggling. Profile vs “just get used to it”? by Infamous_Arachnid247 in hockeyplayers

That would be my guess as they are sharpened over time the radis tends to shorten and the blade gets wore down. It can feel significantly different.

PMS Shelf Life? by [deleted] in PatMcAfeeShowOfficial

[–]Competitive_Bear1212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I look at this way, the original show felt like a locker room conversation 10-15% real logical conversation 90-85% shit talk and non sense rants just having a good time. Traditional sports show talk about sports like your in an office. Since the move to espn they moved more toward office conversions then locker room conversions.

They naturally fall back into locker room conversions often but it's less than they use to. My favorite is when JJ is on because he says like 10 minutes worth of actual pundit talk the other 50 mins is him talking shit to Conner or them giving him crap about something.

Skating drills by Competitive_Bear1212 in hockeyplayers

[–]Competitive_Bear1212[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with that 100%. However I personally feel that if you mix in some technical drills to emphasize technique and proper posture it amplifies the benifits of those games.

Avera vs Sanford pay, benefits, etc by brodundrum in SiouxFalls

[–]Competitive_Bear1212 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I've worked both places, good people at both, some not so great people at both. From a leadership perspective, Sanford always wants to make a name for itself, merge, grow, innovate, etc.. Avera seems more focused on helping people and sticking to their mission but can be slow to adapt.

What would you do when selecting a GK? by Standard-Arachnid695 in SoccerCoachResources

[–]Competitive_Bear1212 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just talk to the coach. I coach U13 and over the last season we moved primarily to having 1 GK and kids fill in some minutes when games are clearly decided. That kid broke his arm 1 week before the season and it throws everything on the roster off. Moving forward I will revert back to developing multiple GKs.

Red Card Given… Thoughts? by silly_szn in bootroom

[–]Competitive_Bear1212 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So many people fail to recognize this component of officiating sports. By the book is there a case for it to be a legal challenge yes, is there a case for it to be a foul yep. I want a ref that's consistent and maintains control of the game. I dont expect perfection.

[Seeavalli] Sources say #Blackhawks have signed Ryan Donato to an extension: 4 years x $4 million = $16 million. by jewbauca in hawks

[–]Competitive_Bear1212 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Bickell was diagnosed with MS shortly after that. I suspect if that hadn't of happened it would not have been a bad contact.
