What Does A Hockey Advisor Do?

Описание: With the pandemic slowing and stopping some junior hockey and having an effect on college hockey and with the rule changes for college transfers, navigating the upper levels of amateur hockey have become more difficult. For a consulting and training company like Hawkeye Hockey Services, it has meant more clients seeking help.

Lincoln Nguyen is a senior consultant and co-owner of Hawkeye Hockey Services, which is based in the Twin Cities. Nguyen is a former college and junior hockey coach and he discusses the changing landscape of the upper levels of amateur hockey with The Rink Live's Jess Myers and Mick Hatten.
