THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE & ELITE HOCKEY TRAINING IN THE NORTHEAST!

The Lab’s philosophy

The Lab’s elite roster of hockey players and coaches believe hockey needs to be fun. We believe player training must be consistently engaging, encouraging, built on real-life knowledge and most of all, recent playing experience. Our simple premise is that when a player desires to be the best version of themselves, they are capable of achieving their very best.

Our mission is to surround the next generation of hockey players with the very best coaches and players, who are genuinely invested in growing the game and will do so using tools and techniques relevant to tomorrow’s game, not yesterday’s.

The Lab is built on the training and coaching philosophy of Coach Justin Stanlick. Our elite group of coaches are experienced players and hockey leaders from around the Northeast. Our staff will guide players on their hockey journey and drive them to be winning competitors, on the ice and off.

If your player is ready to become the best version of themselves. It’s time they #GETINTHELAB
