Block 01

See the Game

Lessons 1–11  ·  Modules 1–2

Better decisions start with better eyes. Where goals actually come from, what you are trying to achieve at each end of the ice, and the four roles every player rotates through on every single shift.

Module 1

How to Score

5 lessons

Goals are not random. The analytics behind green, yellow and red shots — how a team manufactures them, and what one player can change tonight.

Module 2

Game Understanding

6 lessons

Deciding what to do gets faster when you know what you are trying to achieve. The objectives of offense and defense, and the four roles you switch between all game long.

Block 02

Become a Complete Player

Lessons 12–37  ·  Modules 3–5

The habits and reads that turn effort into results — the small things nobody coaches, the thought process behind every role, and how to take away the most dangerous ice on the sheet.

Module 3

Gain an Edge on the Competition

7 lessons

Stick position, passing angles, timing, and reading the ice like a chess board. Teachable details most players never get taught.

Module 4

Master the Game Mental Model

7 lessons

The thought process for each of the four roles, how a group plays fast together, and the three questions that solve any situation on the ice.

Block 03

Master Your Role

Lessons 38–60  ·  Modules 6–9

Four roles, four thought processes. Exactly what to do with the puck, without the puck, at the puck and away from it — then a scorecard to grade your own decisions shift by shift.

Module 6

The Puck Carrier — Role 1 Mental Model

7 lessons

You have the puck. Four options, and the concepts that tell you which one to pick — time and space, draw and dish, ice awareness, counting numbers, read and react.

Module 7

Offense Without the Puck Mental Model

5 lessons

Your team has it, you don't. How to present yourself, time your route, communicate and react so the puck finds you in a spot worth having it.

Module 8

Defensive Roles Mental Model

10 lessons

At the puck and away from it. Positioning, pressure versus contain, checking and stick tactics, coverage, support — and what it really takes to be tough to play against.

Module 9

The IMPACT Scorecard

1 lesson

The capstone. Grade your own decisions across all four roles, game by game, and turn sixty lessons into a habit you keep for the rest of your career.

Two lessons a week. Thirty to forty minutes. Sixty lessons that change how a player sees the ice — not how hard they skate.
