Some solid advice from 2014.....
Here are some pretty sound points from an article Mark Brodhaecker referenced from 2014.

Do the little things well

Here are some of the good habits you can develop to help you improve your game:

  1. Don’t over handle the puck in the defensive zone
  2. After you make a pass, just don’t stand there and watch, find open ice and keep your feet moving for a better offensive attack.
  3. After you shoot the puck on the net or have a scoring chance, don’t skate by the net.
  4. It is very important that you do all the little things with no short cuts.
  5. No backhand passes in the defensive zone, work to get the puck on your forehand.
  6. Do not let the guy next to you off the hook. Play your opponent hard every shift.
  7. Make you are mentally prepared for every practice and every game.
  8. Listen to your coach as it takes everyone to buy into his systems to be successful.
  9. Be a team player and push yourself to be the best.
