While looking at cards in Walmart Jake Wallman @walman_9 came up to my son Jake and introduced himself . He was so nice to my kids and bought each of my kids a box of Upper Deck cards. It's these things that make this team special to Edmonton! #LetsGoOilers

Welcome to #yyc, Miro
In Pt. 1 of our @Enterprise Hockey Stars In Cars feature, he talks about being acquired by the #Flames, coming to Canada to play hockey at a young age, and his deep gratitude for being able to live out his dream of playing in the #NHL!
COACHES: This is another HUGE pet peeve of mine.
Players trying to do it all themselves and making a potential rush opportunity into a 1v1.
The higher the level you play, the less likely a player will beat a defender 1v1. Especially on the rush.
I see so many kids try to do it themselves - and if the kid is talented enough at the younger ages it potentially may work out.
But as players advance to higher and higher levels, you rarely see anybody try to beat a defender 1v1. And even more rarely do you see anybody actually beat a defender 1v1.
I see so many coaches rewarding kids at the younger ages for taking the puck from one end of the ice to the other and scoring. While it's great that a number goes on the scoreboard, you are doing a disservice to the kid's development.
Because if that kid doesn't learn the value of passing and using their teammates, at some point this clip is going to happen to them. A LOT. And that player will eventually get passed by the kids that learned to play the right way with their teammates.
On this clip the ANA player tries to do it all himself and the puck goes the other way and eventually ends up in the back of his net. It's hard enough to beat one person 1v1 in high level hockey, let alone skating the puck through multiple defenders.
So coaches, please emphasize the value of using your teammates. I see this type of play SO OFTEN in youth hockey. Passing, hockey sense, playing with your head up, using your teammates...these skills translate to the next levels. Doing it yourself, even if it works as a young player, does not.
