Unrivalled Speed and Skating Development
Nothing else comes close
We use elite-level speed development methods and measurement tools (like 1080 Motion sprint tech and force plate/timing systems) usually only available at professional or collegiate levels, giving athletes precise stimulus and feedback with measurable improvements. Also, our programming provides unparalleled skating development from positional mastery through to power development, focusing not just on raw strength but on movement quality, technique, and optimal force application for fewer injuries and more sustainable performance.
Testimonials
"I’ve never felt faster on the ice."
"Before training with Game Changers, I struggled to keep up in high-pressure moments. After just a few weeks, my first step quickness and top-end speed completely transformed. I’m winning races to the puck and creating plays I couldn’t before."
"Game Changers made me explosive."
"The program is built for athletes who want to separate themselves. My acceleration and change of direction improved so much that my coaches noticed right away. It’s a total game changer."
"The confidence boost is unreal."
"My son always had skill, but lacked that extra gear. After training with Game Changers, he’s faster, more confident, and making an impact every game. He’s not just playing—he’s standing out."
"Results you can see on the ice."
"Within a month, my daughter’s speed and power skyrocketed. She’s chasing down plays and creating scoring chances she never could before. The program truly delivers on game-changing results."
"Players come back transformed."
"I’ve sent multiple athletes through Game Changers, and every single one returned faster, more explosive, and more confident in their game. It’s the kind of training that separates good players from great ones."
"A difference-maker for competitive athletes."
"Speed kills in today’s game, and Game Changers develops it better than anyone. The athletes I’ve coached who trained there are consistently the ones who change outcomes."
Joel Becker
Founder | Odynn Player Performance
Joel Becker is a performance architect operating at the intersection of elite sport, biomechanics, and real-world results. With a Master of Coaching specializing in speed development and skating biomechanics, a background as one of the fastest athletes ever on long-track speed skates, and experience across professional, university, and high-performance environments, Joel has built a reputation for solving one of hockey’s most misunderstood problems: true speed.
His work is not built on trends, tradition, or recycled hockey systems. It is built on force application, movement efficiency, and the precise transfer of power into the ice. While much of the hockey world continues to rely on outdated models, Joel’s system reconstructs how athletes move, accelerate, and produce speed at a foundational level.
At Odynn Player Performance, Joel leads the performance model that integrates biomechanics, strength and conditioning, and on-ice application into a single system. Every athlete is profiled. Every variable is measured. Every progression is intentional. The result is not just faster athletes, but more efficient, more durable, and more dangerous players when it matters most.
His impact spans multiple levels of the game. From professional environments, including work with PWHL athletes, to his time with the University of Alberta Golden Bears, Joel’s model has consistently produced measurable improvements in speed, power, and on-ice performance. Athletes entering his system often arrive as top performers in their previous environments and quickly discover a new standard.
Joel’s thought leadership has been featured on major coaching platforms, including presentations at The Coaches Site Live 2025, where he broke down the biomechanics of elite skating and the direct connection between speed and offensive impact. He is known for challenging industry norms, simplifying complex science, and delivering systems that athletes can execute immediately.
He holds his Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist designation, but his true edge lies beyond certifications. It is in his ability to see what others miss, to identify inefficiencies in movement, and to rebuild athletes into faster, more powerful versions of themselves.
Joel’s mission is simple:
To eliminate the gap between potential and performance by engineering speed that shows up in games, not just testing environments.
What Athletes & Coaches Say
“Joel doesn’t just make you faster. He shows you why you weren’t fast before—and fixes it.”
— Elite Junior Athlete
“I came in thinking I was performing at a high level. Within weeks, I realized I had been training in the wrong system entirely.”
— Professional Player
“His ability to connect biomechanics to actual hockey performance is unmatched. This isn’t theory—it’s results.”
— Coach, The Coaches Site Live 2025 Attendee
