How to Improve Game Performance With Guest Barry Smith, 7 Time Stanley Cup Winning Coach - EP 358

How to Improve Game Performance With Guest Barry Smith, 7 Time Stanley Cup Winning Coach - EP 358

This week Topher talks with Barry Smith, 7 time Stanley Cup winning NHL coach. Smith shared some of his extensive hockey knowledge with us and what he’s learned in his years working with Scotty Bowman and numerous other NHL Hall of Famers.

In this episode we talk about:

— Improving game performance by replicating the game in practice

— Introducing contact younger, so that players don’t have to think about it later

— How there are a lot of skilled players, but not smart players

— Smith’s personal experience in the NHL

— How players can’t be fearful of losing & the need to find ways to reward players other than winning the game

AND SO MUCH MORE!
