When it first came to Toronto after originally starting in Vancouver, there was a small but passionate turnout. It has now grown into a must-attend event for anyone with an interest in coaching hockey at any level. Over 200 people attended the three-day event from a variety of programs, be it minor hockey, junior programs, college programs, sports media, or professional coaches (and GMs).
I’ve said this before in years past, but the thing that always impresses me most is the camaraderie and approachability of the group. Everyone has time for you, everyone is willing to share ideas, and everyone there is just trying to get better, including the presenters.
