Defence Skills Sessions
Fredericton - Tuesday Evenings from July 7th to August 7th 2025
The D skills we run involve edge work, puck-handling, and shooting, emphasizing correct posture (Eyes, Stick, Feet). Shifting our focus to position-specific skills and repeatedly executing situations that will happen in games creates confidence and comfort on the ice. A key feature is our video component with clips from on-ice sessions and NHL breakdown shared with our defencemen via Upfront+ between sessions.
Goals
- Better understand the defencemen position
- Build skills that translate to in game
- Become more confident with the puck
- Be ready for junior camps and showcases

Player Expectations
This is an invite-only development program.
Skaters must be invited or accepted to participate.
Coaches Kade and Colton will be working closely with a maximum of 8 skaters, ensuring a high level of individual attention and development.
Each session begins 45 minutes before the scheduled ice time with a video breakdown focused on elite defencemen. These video sessions are directly tied to the specific skills that will be emphasized on the ice that day, helping skaters see the habits and details in action before practicing them in real time.
