My name is Terry Saunders, owner and founder of Stride 82, where we combine the art of coaching with the science of performance. Our mission is clear: to help hockey players reach their full potential through data-driven insights and personalized development.
I bring a rare combination of experience — professional hockey officiating, junior and collegiate playing, coaching, and a professional career as a data analyst. This unique background allows me to break down performance with precision, turning advanced HELIOS Hockey skating metrics into clear, actionable development plans that lead to smarter training, faster skating, and better results on game day.
My own success as a professional official came from two key factors: strong skating skills and the guidance of a mentor who believed in me, pushed me, and gave me an edge I’d never had before. His officiating number was 82 — and today, that number represents my mission. With Stride 82, I want to give players that same edge through expert coaching, cutting-edge technology, data-driven insights, and the support that can change your game.
