What Is It?

The Scout's Shift-by-Shift Breakdown (SxS) is a complete, professional evaluation of your player's game, conducted by an active NHL scout. Unlike traditional coaching feedback, this process mirrors how prospects are assessed at the highest levels of hockey.

It's an insider's lens into what truly matters for scouts, GMs, and decision-makers.
