Kevin Neeld, Head Performance Coach of the Boston Bruins National Hockey League (NHL) team, joins the NSCA Coaching Podcast to share about strength and conditioning practices in the NHL. Neeld connects with NSCA Coaching and Sport Science Program Manager, Eric McMahon, on his path to working in professional hockey, the involvement of strength and conditioning at the annual NHL Draft Combine, and the partnership between the Strength and Conditioning Association of Professional Hockey (SCAPH) and the NSCA. The discussion includes perspectives for aspiring coaches about working in professional hockey, on-ice and off-ice training, and the recent growth of performance staffs. Connect with Kevin on Instagram: @kevinneeld or Twitter: @KevinNeeld| Find Eric on Instagram: @ericmcmahoncscs or Twitter: @ericmcmahoncscsShow Notes“The shift on off-ice development and preparing for a potential combine battery takes a back seat to making sure that you’re ready to play the next game, as it should. In contrast, we have players that maybe have not played a game in three months. So there’s a lot of context that needs to be considered when interpreting the test results of the players that are at the combine.” 9:08 “What we see in some of these conversations that come up regularly is that a player might be really fast on the ice and really underdeveloped in their speed and power qualities off the ice. To me, that may be a player that you really want to take a strong look at because if they have a four-cylinder engine, and they’re beating eight-cylinder engines in races, then you increase the size of the engine. It’s likely that they’re going to continue to scale up in a positive direction.” 15:35 “It’s more of a three-pronged approach of marrying what literature and research-based evidence says along with the coach’s experience along with the values and preferences of the athlete.” 33:10

Lance and Joe are back this week going over what they saw at the NHL Draft Combine and the players they think would be interesting for the Sabres to choose in the first round when they pick at 13th overall. They also talk about the free agent defense market following the Blue Jackets trading for Ivan Provorov and Damon Severson (and also signing him to a goofball deal). Lance talks about Victor Olofsson's expectation to be traded and what that does with the Sabres forwards including UFA Zemgus Girgensons and RFA Tyson Jost.  Plus there's more!Thanks for listening and thanks for letting us know you're enjoying the pod.Follow Lance and Joe on Twitter!Read Lance's work at The Buffalo NewsRead Joe's work at Noted Hockey and Bleacher ReportBig thanks to our musician friends --Intro: MerlinBerlin -- "Orbit" - Find them on BandcampOutro: Chips 'N Cellos -- Boss Fight (Sabre Dance, Khachaturian) - Find them on Bandcamp  The Trap - New Jersey Devils PodcastPodcast covering the New Jersey Devils which includes comedy, angry rants and cultural...Listen on: Apple Podcasts

Just over three months of the off-season remain and Mike Stubbs updates all of the news surrounding the London Knights. Mike gives us a thought on why the QMJHL has won the last four Memorial Cups, speaks with P.J. Fagan, Alexei Medvedev and Blake Arrowsmith who have each signed standard player agreements with the team and goes over the results from Knights players and picks who attended the NHL Draft Combine.

Inside today's Locked on Canadiens Scott is back from a busy weekend at the NHL Draft Combine in Buffalo, New York and there is a ton to talk about. Scott gives his overall reaction to the testing on Saturday, and also the connections between many of the top players in this upcoming draft class. Players like Andrew Cristall gushing about Connor Bedard, or the trio of USNTDP players at the top of the class all have plenty to say about each other. Also based off the interviews from the week, what are the Canadiens going to do at fifth overall in the NHL Draft? It's still cloudy, but Scott does his best to try and read between the lines to see what Kent Hughes and the Canadiens might be up to when they take the stage in Nashville. Speaking of the Canadiens, when interviews and testing wrapped up on Saturday one thing was very clear, the Montreal Canadiens are very much in the hunt for a goalie in this upcoming draft. Scott spoke with Michael Hrabal, Adam Gajan, and Trey Augustine over the weekend, each of whom had a long talk with the Canadiens during the week. Scott walks through each of the options and why it's a great time for the Canadiens to stock up on goalie prospects. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

As we get closer to the 2022 NHL Draft in Montreal, Locked On Flyers hosts Russ Cohen and Rachel Donner join us to give us tidbits from the Draft Combine in Buffalo, particularly as it pertains to the Canadiens. Russ was covering the combine and was able to speak to many of the players, and this is the first of a two-part draft prospect related episode, with the second episode, coming tomorrow, covering Shane Wright, Logan Cooley, Juraj Slafkovsky, Simon Nemec, Matthew Savoie, David Jiricek, and more. We also recap the Laval Rocket games over the weekend as the series heads back to Springfield, and we discuss our respective nemeses of the week between our two shows. The officiating in both the NHL and the AHL playoffs leaves a lot to be desired so we touch on how the series between the Rocket and the Thunderbirds is getting out of control and Cayden Primeau, who has played extremely well behind the Rocket, ends up being the collateral damage.

As we get closer to the 2022 NHL Draft in Montreal, Locked On Flyers hosts Russ Cohen and Rachel Donner join us to give us tidbits from the Draft Combine in Buffalo, particularly as it pertains to the Canadiens. Russ was covering the combine and was able to speak to many of the players, and this is the first of a two-part draft prospect related episode, with the second episode, coming tomorrow, covering Shane Wright, Logan Cooley, Juraj Slafkovsky, Simon Nemec, Matthew Savoie, David Jiricek, and more.We also recap the Laval Rocket games over the weekend as the series heads back to Springfield, and we discuss our respective nemeses of the week between our two shows. The officiating in both the NHL and the AHL playoffs leaves a lot to be desired so we touch on how the series between the Rocket and the Thunderbirds is getting out of control and Cayden Primeau, who has played extremely well behind the Rocket, ends up being the collateral damage.Find and follow Locked on Canadiens on your favourite podcast platforms:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/locked-on-canadiens-daily-podcast-on-the-montreal/id1481087511Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0DUBvqUjDFSfWSFnogXOoU?si=BknvfKB8QF-eXiiomysuZw&nd=1Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/show/locked-on-canadiens-daily-podcast-on-the-montreal-canadiensAlso make sure to follow Locked on Canadiens and their hosts on Twitter!Locked on Canadiens: https://twitter.com/LO_CanadiensFind Scott on Twitter: https://twitter.com/scottmatlaFind Laura on Twitter: https://twitter.com/theactivestick#NHLHockey #MontrealCanadiens #HabsSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Inside today's Locked on Canadiens: Carey Price has won the 2022 Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy for perseverance and dedication to the sport of hockey. Yet, somehow there was not all congratulations and applause for the Habs franchise netminder. Scott and Laura break down the story around Price and his comeback and also debate whether the spilled ink around his win is worth it. After that, the NHL Draft Combine was last week in Buffalo, with all the top prospects converging to take part in player interviews with NHL teams and to do their fitness testing. Unsurprisingly the Montreal Canadiens were at the forefront of the news, not only based on who they were interviewing with, but also the seemingly odd questions they asked to the draft-eligible players. Scott and Laura discuss the biggest question posed to the prospects, and also if there's anything to read into which players were treated to dinner by Kent Hughes and the Canadiens. Finally, the Laval Rocket kicked off the Eastern Conference Finals against the Springfield Thunderbirds on Saturday night. Scott breaks down the first two games of the series, in which the Rocket earned a hard-fought split on the road, and where the series is headed next. The hosts also take a look at when we might see top prospect Joshua Roy in the lineup, and what tweaks can still be made to keep the momentum in their favour. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Our guess is the VGK front office has probably heard enough of former head coach Gerrard Gallant's name in recent weeks as his team makes it into the Conference Final. Did VGK make a mistake by letting Gallant go too soon? He has shown his ability to win and be honest with his teams, media, and management.

In this week's episode, Brutes + James discuss the first two games of the NBA Finals, Kevin Hayes to the Flyers, Dave Tippett named the coach in Edmonton, Kaapo Kakko skipping the NHL Draft Combine to party with Team Finland, and the Evgeny Kuznetsov video controversy.

The Blackhawks have narrowed their list to six players for the third overall pick on June 21st. Who are they and who do I want? It’s a tough decision but I give my analysis on some of the prospect and answer some fan questions as well.

This week we're honored to be visited by our friend Joe Yerdon, currently writing for NHL.com on the Buffalo Sabres beat. It's always a blast to talk puck with Joe, and it gets fascinating when we talk about his front row seat for all of the Buffalo drama. We talk about their prospects like Sam Reinhart and Mikhail Grigorenko, and an upcoming one - some nobody named Jack Eichel or something? Joe was also covering the recent NHL Draft Combine that was in Buffalo, and we do a little brain picking about that experience. How will new coach Dan Bylsma tackle the challenge there? There's also some speculation about the role the Sabres will play in the free agent and trade markets. They have the picks, cash, and cap space for offer sheets- Hmmmm... It's really interesting to see how things are going on in Buffalo, and of course see what lessons can be learned and applied to our Blues.

NHL-podden Pro Hockey Talk är framme vid sitt 25:e avsnitt den här säsongen. Det firar Linus Hugosson och Uffe Bodin med att ge lyssnarna allt inför den stundande Stanley Cup-finalen. En rejäl genomgång av de bägge finalisterna Los Angeles Kings och New York Rangers utlovas. Det vilar en air av förväntan över veckans Pro Hockey Talk. I natt spelas den första Stanley Cup-finalen mellan Los Angeles Kings och New York Rangers i Staples Center. Dagen till ära bjuder Linus Hugosson och Uffe Bodin på en fyllig genomgång av finalister – lagdel för lagdel. Linus och Uffe passar även på att delge sina tips inför finalen och passande nog skiljer de sig åt. Det står nämligen 10-10 i den prestigefyllda tipskampen de båda NHL-nördarna emellan. Dessutom försöker programledarna att finna Henrik Lundqvists plats i den svenska hockeyhistorien. Börjar han nå samma nivå som Peter Forsberg, Nicklas Lidström, Mats Sundin och de andra superstjärnorna? Annat kort och gott i Pro Hockey Talk #25: • Det snackas NHL Draft Combine där William Nylander imponerade samtidigt som en annan av de hetaste spelarna inför draften misslyckades kapitalt i en av styrketesterna. • Vancouver Canucks har plockat bort en av sina svenska spelare från trejdmarknaden. Är det ett bra beslut? • Chicago Blackhawks har en tuff utmaning framför sig. De måste skriva dyra långtidskontrakt med Patrick Kane och Jonathan Toews. Kommer de att få plats med alla stjärnor under lönetaket under de närmaste säsongerna? • Det är dags att bli nostalgisk igen. Den här gången tar Linus och Uffe upp sina bästa Stanley Cup-minnen. • Slutligen, en ranking av de fem främsta Conn Smythe Trophy-kandidaterna. Var hamnar Kung Henrik? Detta och mycket mer i en fullspäckad podcast med stort Stanley Cup-fokus!
