"Shayne is a knowledgeable, experienced, natural born leader to those he works with. His professional hockey experiences have allowed him to have an influence on young athletes, college hockey players, and professional athletes around the country. Because he has had the opportunity to play professional hockey for 18 years, he is able to instill his knowledge, advice and skill among fellow players. Working with Shayne over the years has opened my eyes to the skills and work ethic that is needed to be successful. He is one that will drive himself to be the most successful, no matter the circumstances. Shayne demands the best out of everyone, and this is something that makes his way of teaching effective. He has had an effect on me around the rink, and in my daily life, showing me that being responsible and mature is what leads to a successful and lengthy career."

Knowing and training with him on a personal level has allowed me to improve not only my skills and techniques, but also my overall professional hockey game.

"Shayne has been a big factor in to my transition to becoming not just a professional but becoming a complete professional with all the assets to having a great and longer career. He has pushed and helped me become a better professional on and off the ice. He knows what it takes to succeed. He runs practices that test your skill and conditioning at the same time. He pushes guys and teaches that handwork is what you need to succeed. After a long season and some time off he is the guy that I go to to get back to where I need to be. His camp allows me to hone my skills and get my conditioning back. It is a great environment, he treats everyone like a professional no matter their age or level of hockey. If you are looking for a way to improve conditioning and work on the skills that will get you to the next level Shayne is the coach for you. He has helped get me to the level of hockey I am at, but most importantly showed me what it takes to stay."
