Run SAGs like an NHL coach

Workshop 137: "The game isn't the teacher, the teacher is the teacher"

In the third and final part of my 2024 Montreal Canadiens Development Camp breakdown (part 1, part 2), I explain why MTL’s small-area games are more than meets the eye.

Watch the video workshop above to understand:

  • How MTL Director of Hockey Development Adam Nicholas bakes affordances into all of his small area games (SAGs)

  • How to manipulate SAGs for maximum teaching efficacy

    • Use of timing to create mismatches

    • Use of starting position to influence decisions

    • Use of individual attention to ensure the teacher is the teacher
