The boys are back! This time @swancommander sits down with Ryan Swain to discuss skill development's place in a player's progression. How do we get our skill set to the NHL level?

This episode stemmed from Eric Swanick(@swancommander) asking Andrew Serpico(@easerps) a somewhat hypothetical question in a private conversation; "I wonder how many current NHL players ran around the country chasing "top programs and green grass" vs how many just kept it simple, played at home living a normal life, and just dominated.

Well, Andrew compiled the data and steps into the pod!

Ryan Swain(Swain's Hockey Skills & Development) is back with insight to help players develop the physical skills of a hockey player as well as to discuss the mental skills beneath them. Ryan's insight is an awesome contribution to the Swan Hockey perspective.

Mark Carlson steps into the pod! After securing USHL win #779 last Friday, he is the winningest coach in USHL regular season history! Join Mark and Eric for this episode!
