Ep. 13 - Performance Evolution: Insights from the Ice

Kevin Neeld, performance director for the Boston Bruins, sits down with Michael Pruchniewski to break down how modern athlete development is evolving, and why data is only as powerful as the humans interpreting it. The conversation digs into the real day-to-day of blending tech with training, from understanding what athletes actually need to the pitfalls that trip up data pros in elite environments. Neeld pulls back the curtain on how players respond to metrics, where performance optimization is headed, and what today’s coaches, analysts, and athletes should focus on if they actually want to get better.
