On this week's episode we welcome on Ted Suihkonen, Director of Player Development and Skills Specialist for HC Lokomotiv in the KHL. Ted brings a lot of experience in the world of skill development into our conversation today and a lot of great thoughts as well. In today's show we talk about how Ted got started in skill development, how he educates himself in the field, and a little about his company Suihkonen Hockey (www.suihkonenhockey.com). Then we get a bit more practical and explore topics such as progressive skill development, what a typical session looks like, and balancing individual and team needs.
