Training the brain as much as the feet, hands and the rest. That's the key to elite players. Good video Jeremy.

His head is up during all these drills, that's most impressive to me!

I really like the tip about counting to maintain a head-up position and focus. Keeping my head up while stick handing is something I struggle with. Any ideas about how someone could do this when they're practicing alone?

about the numbers, when your body is doing physical work your brain turns off, doing these drills and having your brain working is great practice for applying these skills on the ice and playing smart hockey

[@ryanlee2590]

Thanks Jeremy!

[@deltasigsquirrel]

Hey Jeremy, informative as always. Got a question for you though. McDavid is using one of those street hockey balls in this video; is it better to use one of these versus a weighted ball/golf ball/stick-handling ball? _Adult rec leaguer trying not to look so bad on the ice_

[@CoachJeremy]

I prefer a green biscuit of stickhandling ball. anything will do, and maybe this gym just uses the street hockey balls because they are affordable

Hey Jeremy, is the an app we can use which has numbers and you need to repeat after it. To replace the person calling out the numbers

[@awildermode]

Wow...just, wow!

[@MDhockey]

Great Video!

[@HutTwoHike]

I think the idea of having the coach using his hand to have the player count off numbers while doing drills is brilliant. I hate to think of all the years I spent staring at the puck while showing off (And getting lit up from time to time) while obsessing over my puck control without teaching yself to do it without looking at the puck. This is the drill Ill put my kids through almost as much as ice time itself. If the law will allow it lol

[@leahmaclean4497]

[@verifiednobody7836]

Jeremy, how do I keep my bottom hand from doing most of the rotation during stickhandling? I've noticed my bottom hand always opens up when I stick handle and when I compare it to the dangle time app your hand does not.

[@MrMitchywoo]

Torch the Tank take an empty toilet paper roll and put it on your stick where your bottom hand goes. This forces you to use your top hand and let the stick slide up and down through your bottom one

[@ashtons.2282]

Paynan Diaz little late to the party but have been doing this for a few weeks and have noticed lots of improvement thanks!

[@sheilamizera1448]

Should I do these with roller blades and gloves

[@baileyhoward9687]

Nice gloves

[@hagelsbagels34]

Love the videos Jeremy, especially the apps. Dangletime is a really fun app, but maybe add a play area in the app to make it more fun. For example, there is a virtual character with a hockey stick and you can move your finger around to stickhandle around objects. It might seem a little bit much, but it can help set the balance after stickhandling for a long time and so you can take a break afterwards. :)

[@CoachJeremy]

I'd make that a separate app

[@jognus9910]

How long do I do these drills a day?

[@marlies6628]

Nice

[@ebbnyc]

Would you use your regular stick or cut one down to size without skates?

[@TysonHook-22-]

I wonder the same

[@ssactionfilms5186]

It would be cool if on your Dangletime app you had a feature that showed different numbers so we could do what Connor was doing without having to use another person👍🏻

[@CoachJeremy]

I will add it!

[@timosnieder4637]

[@alexst-onge9851]

Something else that wasn't obvious to me at first, is that he's pushing off with his inside leg on those drills.

hey what's up whats the app called

[@milesgolden2314]

Please make your app free I really want to use it but I’m not aloud to buy it

[@marcusorlow485]

a video idea is maybe just making a sequence of numbers for players training at home to call out while doing drills for 1 minute or so

[@richardmaguire1207]

Outstanding video of a truly outstanding player. Connor McDavid is the most complete player and is right up there with Sid Crosby after less than 2 years in NHL. He is awesome to watch to say the least. These videos are great, keep them coming and Thank you.

[@TheTpain213]

McDavid's shooting, faceoffs, board play and overall defensive game isn't at an elite level, I wouldn't call him a complete player like Crosby or Bergeron.

[@richardmaguire1207]

Everybody has a right to their opinion and experienced commentators on NHL Now agree with me. McDavid's stats for goals and assists speak for his playmaking ability. Being a Captain of an NHL Hockey Team after a year speaks of his leadership and influence on the Team at the ripe old age of 19 is incredible to say the least. Having a Plus/minus score of 25 on the NHL Scoring Stats also speaks for what has taken place when McDavid is on the ice-someone on his shift to include him is scoring. Bergeron is 42 points under McDavid right now. Bergeron is good but does not compare. It is as simple as that.
