by Laura Stamm (Author)
It's no secret that the most neglected fundamental in the sport of hockey is skating. While most players and coaches emphasize stickhandling, passing and shooting, it is the best skaters who become the most valuable hockey players. As the top skating coach for the NHL since 1979, Stamm has helped over 300 NHL players develop power skating techniques. In this expanded edition, Stamm turns hockey players into powerful skaters using the same skills proven by the pros. The book showcases Stamm's knowledge and experience in power skating. Players learn how to develop speed, power and agility on the ice through a variety of new techniques and over 100 drills and exercises. There are over 340 drawings and photographs illustrating every skating skill from start to finish.
