Skating and Defense are already showing up as meaningful strengths through live shifts, and those strengths are beginning to raise the quality of every rep. The next jump is Passing.
Ethan is doing well with backward skating & pivots, and that strength is starting to show up in more live reps. The goal is to keep making it reliable when the pace rises.
Ethan has moved Passing from Consistent into Competitive. Passing measures timing, accuracy, pace, and whether the ball is delivered in a way that helps the next action happen cleanly.

Milestones show progress in a specific skill. Players usually move through milestones with age, practice, and better game understanding.
Stages describe the player’s broader development level. They are based on the average of all skill milestones in the report.
Skills may be at different milestones. The overall stage shows the player’s combined development over time.
The player is building the base. Coaches are looking for understanding, effort, and cleaner reps before expecting the skill to show up consistently in games.

Ethan's Skill Build: Passing
Your drill this week: Skating Passing Pairs
Execute accurate forehand and backhand passes while both players are in motion skating up the ice.
When you're the one receiving, bring a calm, ready mindset — your confidence gives the passer somewhere to trust.
Passing while skating is significantly harder than stationary passing because you must control body movement, blade angle, and timing simultaneously.
Two players skate side by side from the goal line to the far blue line.
Lead your partner, pass ahead of them, not at them
You're there when your partner catches the pass in full stride, no breaking step, no reaching back, just catches and goes.
Add a third player who trails and can intercept, forcing more precise passes.
