Thanks alot Fiveholegoalie and The Wall33,

Fiveholegoalie- Thanks a lot. I currently own a reaction ball and find it helpful for reaction time and coordination. I like your idea of continuously "shocking" the mind, I'm now trying to incorporate more "shocking" of the mind into my drills. I do a good drill where i balanced on a swiss ball on my knees (simulating butterfly). While balancing throw the reacton ball against the wall, or any coordination drill that you see fit.
A drill i forgot to mention which has helped my reaction time alot is a set of drills i have learned about for Tretiaks goaltender manual. You use a broom handle (cut to 36 inches). You can do many drills, but this is just a basic one i would like to share. You hold the stick out in front of you, palms facing down. Drop the stick clap once and catch the stick palms facing down. I will scan the book and post when i get home from school today.

The Wall33- Thanks for posting. The website you posted looks interesting, I would be interested to see if it works. I noticed on the website that they had testemonials from Hextall and Dan Ellis. Let me know how it goes.

Thanks,
Danish
