ACC Athlete Zach Aston-Reese Selected for USHL Prospects Game

We are very excited to announce that Staten Island NY resident Zach Aston-Reese, who plays for the Lincoln Stars of the USHL has been invited the to he USHL NHL Top Prospects Game.

     Zach began training with us last summer as a referral from the Orr Hockey Group.   Zach showed up with a great attitude and a will to do what had to be done to get him ready for the season.  Being from Staten Island his options were limited for specific hockey training.  So he travelled to Ottawa 3 times last summer for an evaluation and programs.

At the best of times take away programs can be challenge for young prospects, it takes dedication and focus when you are training on your own.  After getting the recipe, Zach has made the best of it with a very successful year so far.
We are wishing Zach the best of luck in the game and hope it adds to his future dream of playing in the NHL one day.

DB Split Squat Technique - Goldenberg and Roberts

Here is another NHLPA All Canadians video that Gary and I shot last year.  Notice the coaching points and detail.  This is an exercise that can be very positive if you execute it properly, or counter productive if you do not.

Quebec Nordiques - Last team picture

I was surfing the internet recently and found this link to the last team picture of the Quebec Nordiques.  Aside from myself in this picture (top left if anyone is looking) there are also some great players on this team including:  Joe Sakic, Peter Forsberg, Mike Ricci, Adam Deadmarsh,  and Wendel Clarke.  We actually won the Presidents trophy that year which was the strike shortened season.  We lost to the eventual Stanley Cup Champions NY Rangers in the first round in 5 games.  We should have beat them!!  We won the cup the following year as the Colorado Avalanche...

Gary Roberts & Coach Goldenberg Demo SB Russian Twist

Here is a clip we did for the NHLPA AllState All-Canadians Program.  This exercise looks simple enough, but rarely executed properly.  Keep the hips up, core tight, and progress with the load.
