Our outstanding team of instructors is led by David Maley, a
former San Jose Shark and Stanley Cup winner who founded Rollin»
ice in 1996, as well as Travis Hawkins, a veteran professional roller
hockey player who is in high demand as an instructor for youth and adults at all levels.
Ostensibly, it is the story of a team of nine - year old
hockey players in a Boston suburb, their coach, a
former high school baseball coach and local sports hero, the all - male board of directors of the town's
hockey club, a
hockey mom concerned about her kids emotional well - being, and, at center
ice, a set of adorable, identical, competitive, but sensitive twin boys who became, as is all too often the case in the adult - centered world of youth sports, the unintended but innocent victims of a real life power play.

former an Adjunct Professor at Chalmers — carefully studied the moves of
former NHL
player Nicklas Lidström during games in an attempt to develop a mathematical theory on game intelligence in team sports — in this case
ice hockey.
