Goaltender Membership

The way that our goaltender membership will work is that goalies will be able to be a part of all of our regular clinics, method run staff on ice lessons, and player development classes (off-ice upstairs).  Of course they would also have access to a special strength training program that offers extra work on the groins and hip areas as well as flexibility that goalies need to be at their best.  The on-ice clinics, the Method Staff run Lessons and the player development program are the 3 hockey components of our membership and will run concurrently with regular ice hockey players in those sessions.  In the on-ice clinics we will have our goalies work with Michel Larocque or an assistant goalie coach where they will have some time individually and some time working on shot stopping in the larger group.  They will work in the Method Staff run lessons in a similar way but with our coaches taking shots and extra practice time.  In both of these sessions they will be paired up with players similar in age.  These two on ice sessions are different than the Michel Larocque lessons that he will still do for a discounted price to players who have the Method Hockey Goaltending Membership.  Those lessons with Michel are very much directed individually to what that goaltie specifically needs to work on where the Method sessions will work on general goaltending skills within our sessions.  In our player development program goalies will work on skating (on our synthetic treadmill-working on C cuts and the things that goalies really need to be good at), they will work on posture and positioning (things that don't make sense to do out on the ice where the cost is more expensive), they will use Sense Arena (a goaltending Virtual Reality training program), they will work on stick handling and distributing the puck, they will work on shot stopping and they will have a program called reflexion that will work on reactions and visual cognition all in full equipment and skates upstairs.  The access lite membership gets you access to everything mentioned above plus our foundations classes which are exercise games that work on strength training and speed and agility.  The access Lite monthly membership costs $399/month.  We also offer an Access Plus Annual Membership which includes everything in the Access Lite but also includes summer camps (which will all have goalie training), a dedicated goaltender training camp week in the summer, spring 3v3 league, and spring and summer progression program all of which will have a goalie program.  Those extras are worth over $8000 if you purchased them individually but we include them for annual members knowing that there are times during the year that you might use the facility less and we want to give you extra to incentivize you to stay members all year long.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are combines?

Combines are set up as a way to showcase what you have been working on. Players will receive a profile and be tested in many different events both on and off the ice to see how their skills are progressing and how their skills compare to players their age . Based upon that skill testing, you can work with a Method Hockey coach to create a training plan to improve your skills!

Will there be video analysis?

Yes. Method Hockey will have an NHL video capture system. Bring in your game tape and we can isolate a player using h is/her number and see all of the game footage on that player to go over film. We can also do it for an entire team. Ask our staff about our video sessions.

Will players compete against each other in the center?

In a fun game - like way. They will compete for workout points using our heart rate monitor system. They will also compete in shooting games and stick handling games as well as games on our synthetic rink.

What Coaches are available?

Our staff coaches are Jamie Lundmark, Chris Campanale, Jean O’Neil, Austin White, Stephen Notebaert, Fran Mackin and Chris Baer. We also have a number of coaches that work part-time in our facility.
