Most of us have heard of Barb Underhill, and the fine work she's done. This is a good article exploring another of the unheralded who the Maple Leafs have relied on. An interesting read.

In today’s NHL, skating is king. And Dawn Braid is a kingmaker. | Sportsnet

Was actually thinking about Marner's stance while skating recently. In his rookie season he was very hunched over. I have noticed lately he's not hunched over near as much. I wonder if it's something they've worked on together? I would think the hunched over style would be bad on his back over a long period of time. I'm not technologically inclined enough to provide a side by side of Marner's skating in his rookie season vs this year.
