On-ice CPN Plan Reduces the Trauma of Concussions

An exceptional player will possess top-notch read-and-react skills when on the ice, anticipating where the puck is going because of their well-developed vision skills. This allows maximum peripheral vision to instantly help decide the next physical movement.
Throughout his book "Athletic Vision Skills", Dan Selin explains the science behind well-developed vision skills as the NEW sports skill. Simply put, a player's expanded field of vision offers more options for the brain to create instant automatic body movements. All good players possess well-developed skating, stickhandling, passing, and shooting skills, but a player's vision skill-level, once mastered, will change the way they play the game. Well-developed vision skills lessen body injuries and concussions, creating better-skilled and more-valuable players on the ice.
Terminology including head-up/chin-up, read-and-react, what's in your brain is how you play, five head positions, the 140-factor, etc., help explain how a player can effectively play without looking down and tracking the puck, contributing to safer play.
Dan's book presents practical solutions, testimonials from players and sports writers, first-person stories, statistics, newspaper articles, medical professionals' opinions, and facts. Empirical data collected through studies is used to support the basis of this new frontier for the training of tomorrow's highly-skilled hockey players.
