Complete Player Care

ORR’s primary goal is to provide every one of our clients with a comprehensive plan of programs and services so that they may fully develop and reach their limitless potential…on and off the ice. Every ORR client will be provided with a full continuum of guidance that ensures peak performance.

Our roadmap to excellence starts with the proper assessment of a player’s strengths and weaknesses. From this starting point, we are able to help design and implement player-specific “personal plans for success”, which includes focused skill development, strength and conditioning guidance, and assistance with the establishment of individual nutrition plans.

Our personalized approach also includes assisting with a player’s emotional growth.  Specifically, we will use our years of professional experience to help our clients better deal with the pressures that accompany high expectations. We understand that it is vitally important to build consistency by providing our players with a complete “performance education”; a more professional approach to managing their personal game plans. Armed with all of these tools, we believe each player has the potential to develop the core fundamentals necessary to play successfully at the professional level.

Contract Negotiations

ORR has a well-earned reputation of being marketplace leaders in contract negotiations. Time and again, we have utilized our significant collective experience to negotiate contracts for our clients that have become NHL benchmark deals. ORR’s NHLPA certified agents have a vast amount of knowledge of the marketplace and utilize our experience, legal training, and hockey acumen to secure the very best contracts for our clients.

Player Development

ORR’s mission is to provide every young player with a comprehensive plan of programs and services so that they may fully develop and reach their limitless potential on and off the ice. Clients will be provided with a full continuum of guidance that ensures peak performance.

Insurance

Unfortunately, career-threatening injuries in professional hockey are part of the landscape. Having proper insurance in place is an absolute necessity. ORR works closely with insurance industry experts to assess each of our client’s particular insurance requirements. Once determined, ORR will assist with the implementation of all policies ensuring adequate coverage at competitive rates.

NHL Entry Draft Preparation

We assist all of our draft eligible clients in preparing for the NHL Entry Draft Combine. This includes counseling on both the fitness testing aspects of the Combine as well as the team interview process. Having the ability to provide an “inside/team perspective” on the Combine to our clients is an advantage that ORR has over all of its peers in the agent business.
