I am in my mid fifties and used to play at a high level. I never made it to the NHL but four teammates did. I like getting older, everything seems to get easier as you gain wisdom but one thing I miss terribly is playing hockey at a high level. I love the game and had a ton of fun playing. If I wasn't at the rink I was on a pond or the ice my Dad laid down in the vacant lot next door. My brothers all played, all my friends played...….very fond memories indeed. I had a great time in my youth and stayed out of trouble because I wanted to be a better hockey player. Looking back, I wouldn't change a thing. Thanks Dad, rest in peace. You were a great Father who knew how to keep us all on a straight path and have a great time doing it.
RIP. Sounded like a great dad and someone to model after!
Good post sir, I have a player selection draft game Saturday night for an adult league in my area, hope I get picked up, I turn 55 in December
do you remember who you played with that made it to the nhl? that sounds amazing!
Well said.
I'm playing ball hockey with guys in their 60`s. you can too
Just the skating alone is beautiful, wow incredible.
The skill level of hockey players always amazes me. From the way they skate, their ability to handle the puck without looking at it, and how a puck can be coming to them at 70-80mph and they catch it with their stick like its a glove. Its all extremely impressive to watch.
NHL level footwork never ceases to amaze me. I wish I had half the skating ability of these guys. Backwards crossovers and change of direction is my weak point.
CBRboy1717 Agreed! Captain put me on defense last night in my rec league. Attacking forwards turned me around all night as I tried to stay with them. I definitely need to work on my changing of direction skills as well.
CBRboy1717 hey practice makes perfect, everyone has something to improve on
for a forward its the most difficult thing because you don't skate backwards much unless you have to cover for your defense man
Jayson Moriarty Which is something every forward should be doing in every doing. The more you do it, the more fluid the whole team is. In another ten years things like "defensemen" and "forwards" will apply solely to where you line up for a faceoff.
CBRboy1717 we are like the same forwards I mean my backwards crossovers are good but not as good as these guys. Im weak skating backwards and I mean I really don’t skate backwards as much as the d
Who would dislike this video? It’s mesmerizing just to watch these guys skate
I think it's people who just want to get these types of videos out of their recommended, it's a frustrating thing with youtube and I've had to dislike videos I don't want to dislike because I don't want them in my recommended feed.
mabey if i didnt have to hear that $h!t music.....
urabampot deal with it, he’s gonna have music always
Never played hockey in my life but I’ve always been a fan. I could not agree more. It’s just practice and it was so cool to watch.

Great video, the strap he uses to be towed by the players. Is that something you know the name and where to get it? Cheers.
They're shooting accuracy is just unreal!
their
These guys are defencemen, emphasis on puck handling and passing but also shooting for tips, etc. now Imagine the level of accuracy good forward would have. Finally, imagine the reason why most games are such low scoring. Yeah, goalies are that good (and big).
It's nice to shoot over a collapsed net and hit your mark but imagine having bodies, 6'4 goalies who still cover the periphery when they drop to their knees, etc cetera.
Passing tape to tape. EVERY FREAKIN ONE. Crazy good
This is a dope video. Great mix of music and NHL level training, please post more content like this every once in awhile when you can. When younger kids see how the NHLers practice it'll only make the game better and better. This is awesome.
How fluid there movements are and how easy they make these types of drill look is remarkable.. I freaking wish I coulda played at an early age and been able to compete. They look freaking awesome!
Funny to see this again, with Bieksa on SportsNet now and Chiarot on the Redwings. This video is one of my favourites of all of the Coach J vids :)
Wish I had more time to play hockey, it is so beautiful. HS alum games and a couple outdoor skates per year are all I have left these days. Very precious time indeed.
Watching the footwork is mind boggling to me. I've never ice skated before but the way they move on the ice and the foot work it's like second nature to them. Insane to me.
The lean over on those skates!! Amazing skate drills and skills- good messaging from the Coach. Rings of an adage I’ve tried to live by- Master the basics until you can’t get them wrong
Should've asked bieska how he trains for his superman punch.
mma training in the off season.
He must have studied Ali in his fight with Foreman. Some of Bieksa's fights incorporated the 'right hand lead'.
Bieksa is such a beauty! We miss him in Van 😭
Canucks should re-sign him. Why they don't is beyond me? Leafs need D-men and the Leafs should bring him aboard as he could really help them out.
My young son had the good fortune to attend Derek Popke's skills classes last season. He's a great teacher.
This is probably my favorite all time Hockey video. Thanks for making it and thanks to the players.
the part i like the most is that their passing is dead on every single time they didn't make a bad pass once
if youre at nhl level youre expected to make tape to tape passes or its kind of embarrassing
That's why they play in the NHL
As a Brit from a non Hockey playing country....I have to say Hockey is the highest skill level sport I've ever seen. The basic skill levels needed to even begin playing basic Ice Hockey are off the charts. Incredible.
A lot of years ago, Jeff Brown and Sean Hill, two defensmen for the Carolina Hurricanes, showed up at a drop-in I was at in Raleigh........The skill level of those guys just playing around was unbelievable compared to the scrubs that were out there...including myself, of course! But I never received better passes in my life! Crispy and right on the tape. Every. Single. Time. It was pretty awesome.
this video is soo good i wish there were more of these kinds of videos out there. Its just so enjoyable to watch these guys skate
Unreal how good NHL players skate
Nice video, watching these guys skating is a joy, slowmo is beautiful.
Such smooth skaters!
Always liked Boom Boom, sad to see him leave Vancouver.... after seeing this vid, I have a new found appreciation for him! Hopefully we will see him as a full time broadcaster or analyst!
you were absolutely correct on this one! "Hopefully we will see him as a full time broadcaster or analyst!"
FInally, been waiting for this. Awesome Jeremy!!!:) love from sweden
This is probably the most satisfying and unsatisfying video at a time.
Satisfying cause everything in this video is so fluid, so juicy (haha), apparently so easy.
Unsatisfying on the other hand when I think of my skating which will never look like this :p
Not with that attitude!!
2:14, wanna be an nhl defensemen? learn how to pivot skating backwards while taking a pass and backhand tow dragging around the pylon on instinct like it's nothing at full speed.
Only.... he had his head down. LOL. He should have felt the puck and known the angles. ;-)
hahaha yeah man this nhl level defensemen is doing it all wrong, you tell him!
Toe dragging.
It's simply magical to watch.
I want to be an NHL defenseman I want to learn that with my head up 😂
A pleasure to watch the dedication needed to reach this level of proficiency.
That multisport athlete thing is so true...I've heard that the Capitals play a lot of golf ;)
Haha FTW
I heard the Ducks are big into badminton
ialto!
L, they’re one win away from the cup
Which has now led to them doing Cup stands with Lord Stanley.
Ben is a highly underrated skater. Moves so well with his edges and has excellent puck control.
thhanks coach for the quality content! So much value in each video, I'm an inline skater but your passion for hockey is infectious!! You also helped me a lot with backward crossovers
Awesome to see these elite boys having fun
What these guys do on the ice, is amazing.
Smooth as silk.
2:33 that’s some crazy tight crossover.
Their edge work is just masterful.
Impressive, wish I had that kind of coaching and training way back in the day.
That's everyone's daydream
Chiarot grew to be a great defenceman for Winnipeg. Broke my heart when they couldn't keep him.
He's been awesome in Montreal. Winnipeg has a great development system.
AMAZINGGGGG video! thank you for showing this to us and reminding us that professional hockey players are also doing simple drills to better themselves each and every day.
Oh gosh! What a skating technick...Incredible.Felling libido.
Unbelievable skill! I could watch that all day!
They make it look so easy!
Bieksa... What can I say... Best edges in the NHL ... IF NOT... Best knuckles and hidden cross checks in the corner when he can't keep up
Beautiful poetry in motion it is.
This video was super fun! Thanks for sharing. The editing must have taken hours. Thanks Canada!
Well, the drills worked. Chiarot is a stud.
Wonderful video! I remember pulling our Defensive coach in college while doing "Take off drills" He would be yelling "I want to see ass and elbows. Ass and Elbows"
What did he mean exactly? Can you point me to the moment in the video that is illustrating his point?
Tape to tape passing.
That is huge. Yeah, there are a lot of huge things here but after a lifetime of hockey seeing it so consistent here reminded me of how inconsistent it is at the lower levels
nice video!
so much skill. Crazy.
Bout a year ago I watched a state finals game of the Minnesota D1 High School championship. Random thought. How far back in time would you have to go before those high school kids beat a pro team? I'm 54, played ncaa d1 college. Watching those guys looked like pro hockey from the early 80's. Crazy good these days. Fun stuff
Yo Chiarot’s Dad teaches my science class
Waaaw
Miss watchn the juice lay the lumber.st.Kits boy gotta represent!
One of the leagues toughest!
Great video Jeremy. I liked the first one too and remember Derek Popke say they run practices for defencemen and forwards separately because they work on different things. So I loved watching these 2 defensemen work on some defensive skills but would love it immensely if you could immerse yourself in a similar situation where a few NHL forwards were doing their drills and practice!
What an epic video man thank you so much for this!
They look really fast at the games, but the camera right next to them shows how fast they are!
Oh, great training and amazing video! :)))
That's a great shot of just how far the arms go away from the body.
This did not help me with NHL 18.
John Miller lol
John Miller its for ice hockey not video games
Lol!
Doms gaming yeah I didn’t get the joke either
Good point, a good conditioning coach should schedule in a few hours of "couch time"!
"It's not about making complicated drills, it's about making drills that make you better"... Wish my old coaches would've thought way, some of their drills would take all day just to figure out correctly! 🙄🤷♂️
Any young kid that has aspirations about making it to the NHL, my advice is simple, you need to be an elite level skater on a world level. All NHL players are world class skaters. No exceptions.
I took up hockey 3 years after my NFL career finished. He is absolutely right, that kind of conditioning doesn't really translate to on the ice all that well. I could run a 4.5 40yd dash, and was stronger than everybody I was on the ice with, and when I didn't have a very solid base as a skater, it meant nothing.
Cool vid Jeremy! Well done. Great advice.
Jeremy great video hope you make more of them!
awesome i’m playing this wond with for kevin and ion play defense so tha ms
Ayy i was right on your poll!
lovely sound tape to tape (insert sully doing the perfect symbol)
Great video, Jeremy. More like this please!
A coach in another sport once told me that there is no such thing as basic or advanced. It is about who masters the fundamentals and who doesn't. The best hockey players are the ones who have mastered the fundamentals.
I love how bieska is saying how the ducks are always done in July and jets in April look at the jets now and the ducks are out atleast in one
Gosh, these guys are good!
Love this. have watched it multiple times. Inspires me to work on my skills, especially skating. One question though, what's the music? It's very cool.
The High Life, 2450 and Border, from David Cutter Music!
yes i guessed right in the vote Thankyou Ben
Hey bro my hockey coach used positioning stuff from how to hockey and btw love the vids
Hi Coach Jeremy, what is the music at announcing the "2017 Frozen Yogurt c=Challenge Winner"? Love your video!
wow. I love how they skate.
Great video, and music is suuuperb! which song is from David Cutter? I almost listened to his whole discography, but cound not find it! Please anyone can tell me???
Well, for those interested the songs are: The High Life, 2450 and Border, from David Cutter Music!
I’ve played at that rink a few times before ‼️
captain here: "Juice" is bieksa's nickname.
Hi Jeremy, I enjoy the music very much, can you tell me the theme of the David Cutter music?
Ok!!! I will practice practice practice practice practice.... thanks!!!
Look at that footwork.
That’s my coach omg
Kevin !!!
Great video! Keep it simple, keep it fun! I like the heart rate monitor. What are the ideal heart rate ranges during a hockey practice?
aeroengpilot they were waiting until heart rate was at 110 before they went again.
What kind of resistance bands are those? Interested in using them with my skaters
I'm trying to make it to the NHL level. I want to keep practicing.
That was fun !!!
This coach has some skating chops of his own. He played advanced somewhere
Bieksa , we miss you in Anaheim.😍
Bieksa real good.
Oh ya
8:20 holy shit!!!
Coach J this was fantastic!! But why weren't you out there drillin' with the guys??? Was that you doing all the camera work??? Gotta rotate that duty. As an American who hasn't seen a high-level practice before, that was cool how they used one goal flipped over to make a simple "shooter tutor" to cut off everything but the Upper 90--oops, Futbol speak--Top Shelf on one side. Then got a good laugh outta the Yogurt shot. Always good to be competing even when working on cooperative stuff. Outstanding coach!!
Thought this would be a video about how to chop at people legs, and start meaningless brawls with Bieksa
Best advice is have fun
do bieksa and chiarot normally train together in the offseason, or was it just for the video?
When does Dion get his own 6 min segment? That's going to blow up the RUclips hits...
Luke Rae Sorry, Dion who?
Ya
2:25 best angle u got all day
