The Mental Game

Mass cuts mean mass disappointment for players demoted to the Black Aces, and with the first round of cuts complete, performance psychologist Dr. Saul Miller goes to work helping players to develop their skills and determination. Bell Making the Cut Director of Hockey Operations Jack Birch and his staff of evaluators juggle the newly refined rosters of the elite Blue and Gold squads with the help of Sport Psychologist Dr. Dana Sinclair's profiles. Isolation breeds intensity and bonds of friendship between teammates and roommates, but on game day all eyes are on the prize as the elite teams prove that ""Good players make good hockey."" Old tensions flare and new sparks fly when teams Blue and Gold clash. Only the best will make the cut as players on the bubble meet face-to-face with destiny.
