That’s a wrap on on-ice testing at HPP 2025! 🚨 The 10 HKR Train crew crushed it — hands-on experience for them, smooth sailing for me! 🧠💪 Now it’s time to crunch the data and level up hockey testing and training. Science wins again! 🏒📊🔥

Shout out to @Ascendhealthnl for helping us at HNL hpp with goalie testing. Have a look at this cool reaction time test. We can calculate reaction and movement time and with video we get movement quality!

🧠 Top 10 IQ – Defencemen 🧠
Smart hockey wins games. These 2009-born defensemen stood out for their elite processing, poise under pressure, and ability to make the right read at the right time.
From breakout passes to gap control to quarterbacking the play—these players play chess, not checkers.
Full breakdowns on all 200 players now available in The 2009 Ontario Scouting & Prospect Handbook.
