Paskey - JV Ref 12/30

2:30 -  great example of hustle - hustle is easy to evaluate, and at these stoppages I can easily spot it.
4:00 - called coincidental penalties = mehhh...did that really need to be called?  did it continue a standard  called already?  I hope so...otherwise, look for differentials and let play go on.
5:00 - The tenor of this game really changed, partly due to a 5 min Major/DQ check from behind.  Be ready for that, especially when you are dealing with two rivals, like this game.  Adjust and take what they give you.
8:40 - Work hard to get the best sight lines - don't just hustle at stoppages.  Work the last 10 feet, which may necessitate sprinting below the goal line to see the opposite corner.



2:40 -  rail roading as you skate backwards - you need full extension AND full recovery - The best way to work on this is on inline skates.
6:00 -  missed marking the goalie on a delayed penalty - you missed your opportunity to "shine"
8:00 - Important Point: Having a feel for the game is recognizing certain factors in the game.  For example, penalty selection is best viewed when you "Think Globally and Act Globally" - have the full picture of what you want the game to look like in your mind.  If you call penalties as "cookie cutter" instances, where you just view the infraction and not the global picture, you won't have the same feel.  Not at all.



0:00 -  - your stance is too wide at times, and especially on face offs (can you knock Adrian Peterson flat from that stance?  If not, find a stance that will knock him out :)
0:50 - carried in off sides - get in the habit of going with the players -- it's an awareness/3 P's thing, and it will set you apart from others
4:45 - this is a subtle example of observing players rather than rushing to get the puck = good 3 P's!
6:30 -  I talk about what you be saying to yourself in a high level, high intensity, closely played game like this one (everyone should listen to this commentary).

FREE HOCKEY! (We are going into overtime...):


** I talk quite a bit about visualization and having positive intentions in your brain.  This is very heady stuff (and very serious)...those in the Ultimate Officials Ref Camp will learn more about this at a later date.  Disregard this advice at your own peril...
