A while back I wanted to offer some suggestions when it came to the best way for a hockey player to stretch prior to practices and games. At the same time, I’d just obtained an unbelievable new kind of software that could make such information sharing more effective and interesting. Enter something called “interactive video”… In effect, I can offer you several options as you go through a given piece of information, and at some point you can choose the route you want to take. So, are you ready to follow along with me? Just press the play button below,…

While this one originated with a question from a long time high school hockey coach, my answer probably isn’t going to exactly get too much into what he expects.
