Episode 99 - Tobias Johansson

On this episode of the Hockey Think Tank podcast, we bring on Head of Player Development for Frolunda in the top Swedish league overseas.  Frolunda is highly regarded as one of the top programs in Sweden, and getting the chance to speak with Tobias did not disappoint! He has coached and developed the likes of Rasmus Dahlin, the number one draft pick overall to Buffalo a few years ago...and Lucas Raymond who is projected to go in the Top 5 of next year's NHL draft.  In this conversation, we talk to Tobias about:

-Sweden's development model for developing players.

-Communicating with today's athlete and building trust.

-The importance of competition and small area games.

-What sets the truly elite talents apart from their peers.

-Coaching the individual within a team structure.

-Much, much more!!!
