How to Make Your Hockey Community Better by Taking Inspiration from the Minnesota Model with Guest Mike MacMillan, USA Hockey Coach-In-Chief - EP 380

This week Topher and Jeff talk with Mike MacMillan, National Coach-In-Chief for USA Hockey and Minnesota Hockey's High Performance Director. We talk all things community model, its benefits for player development, and why Minnesota hockey is so successful. In this episode we talk about: — How playing experience isn’t what the best coaches have in common — How everyone has to have a seat at the table to encourage hockey growth — Building programs, and not just creating individual teams within a program — How it’s not what you coach, it’s how you coach AND SO MUCH MORE!
