| "Chris as a hockey strength and conditioning coach is incredible. Our staff with the Pittsburgh Forge was always impressed with our players conditioning levels and ability to avoid injury. Numerous coaches and players from other teams commented to us about how our club just got better as the game went on which was due to Chris' program. Chris understands the needs of hockey players and what they need to do to improve. He has trained a Junior A National Championship team, various Division I players, players rated by NHL Central Scouting, and NHL draft picks. He certainly had an impact on those players achieving the success they've had."

"Off ice training is essential for hockey players of all ages and levels. The sooner we can make players aware of their specific physical needs to play hockey, the sooner they can start developing their bodies for maximum performance. In the 20 years I have been coaching hockey skating, it's been a neglected part of training and the biggest reason players have restricted movement in their skating. The number one reason I would recommend off ice training with Chris is that he knows hockey specific training and understands the physical demands of today's game. With the players he has trained, there is a noticeable difference in their flexibility, leg strength, foot speed, and overall explosiveness."

"Off ice training is extremely important for goaltenders, and Chris truly understands that they need to train differently than forwards and defensemen do. Goaltenders need to be able to pay attention to the technical part of their game throughout play. When they get tired their technique suffers, and this is when they give up goals that they should have. The goaltenders that Chris works with are strong, quick, have very high fitness levels, and can practice and play for longer periods of time.

Former NHL Goaltending Coach
