“Our challenge right now as coaches is to find a way for the players to stay in the moment. The toughest thing for the player is to get overwhelmed by the end result. It’s like playing golf; if you’re standing there worried about what tee shot you’re going to hit on 18, you’re not going to play the first 17 holes. Our job right now is to help the players really narrow their focus. They need to enjoy that and stay in the moment.”
-Ken Hitchcock, Coach of the Columbus Blue Jackets. More from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN.
