Are you actually TRACKING the results your coaches expect of you? Or just winging it?

Can you translate your game into specific, measurable items?

This is one of those underrated parts of becoming a serious hockey player who wants to make it to NCAA or Pro

That is if you're not the guy who is a league-leading scorer or playmaker

You probably don't know what the key results you need to generate on the ice

And because you don't know what those are

You can't track them week to week and see if you're getting better at those things

Imagine saying to yourself you're a physical guy but never tracking how many battles you won in key areas or how many times you were able to initiate contact or separate an opposing player from the puck with a poke check

These are simple habits that compound over time when done right
