Jamie Burr is helping players on the Chicago Blackhawks improve their performances on and off the ice. The University of Guelph teacher is a high-performance advisor for the team.

The human health and nutritional sciences professor at the University of Guelph is currently working with the Chicago Blackhawks .

“The school was really understanding and saw the value of me working with an NHL team for the school as well, so it evolved into a win-win.”Burr is the team’s high-performance advisor, helping improve the players’ on-ice performances and training regimen. “A guy like Nick Foligno, who’s been doing it a for a very long career, may adapt in one way. He’s already probably pretty good at some of those things. But he’s getting a little bit older so maybe the stress on his body is different than it is for Conor Bedard, who’s young, maybe he hasn’t been bag skated as much. So, the idea is individualizing that, understanding what’s hard for whom.

“Sometimes we see in sports, we get entrained in the way things have always been done, and that’s not just a hockey thing, that’s every sport,” he said. “I think having a perspective that maybe there’s a different way to do it, that can be really useful.”
