Advising/Consulting Services
Dr. Westin Michaud's playing career, spanning the NAHL, USHL, NCHC (Colorado College and University of North Dakota), and professional leagues across the AHL, ECHL, and internationally in Canada, Slovakia, Denmark, and the UK, gives him unique insight into navigating the hockey landscape.
At NHDA Hockey, we provide honest feedback through film review, assessments, and discussions with players and coaches to help athletes improve and make informed decisions about their future. We also help families plan and navigate the junior hockey pathway, ensuring players are positioned for success at every stage.
Our advisors also guide families through the NCAA Eligibility Center, standardized testing, course selection, and matching academic interests with the right universities, helping players unlock their full potential on and off the ice.

At NHDA, we leverage our expertise to guide you through the critical decisions that shape your hockey journey, on and off the ice.
​
We work with top-tier junior-eligible players in a highly competitive landscape where the margin for standing out is slim. The game has changed, and navigating this process alone is challenging. Let NHDA be your guide.
​
Partnering with NHDA is an investment in your future. We understand the significant costs of youth hockey, Triple A, junior programs, and college. Our services help you allocate resources wisely and get the most value from every dollar spent.
​
Our goal is to place you in the league that best fits your skills, potential, and budget, on a team where you can play a key role with room to grow.
The NHDA staff is well-versed in the NCAA Clearinghouse process and academic requirements for Division I and Division III programs. We help identify recruiting options, expand your target market, and optimize ACT scores and course selection to maximize your opportunities. Excelling on the ice and in the classroom opens doors, and we'll work with you to get there.
​
When the time comes, NHDA can help connect you with a professional hockey agency for opportunities overseas and beyond. However, our primary focus is protecting your eligibility and amateur status through high school, Triple A, and junior hockey, ultimately guiding you into college hockey.
