On episode #77 of the Hockey Strength Podcast, we sit down with Devan McConnell, the Director of Performance Science and Reconditioning with the New Jersey Devils.
We discuss:
- Devan's role with the team, from data collection to working with injured players.
- His collaboration with the entire hockey performance department in New Jersey
- How he balances limited time for training and attacking the "one percent" despite a condensed schedule and hectic travel.
- Why building relationships is paramount for strength coaches.
- How Devan inspired a college hockey team to read books and write papers.
- Devan's recommended reading.
