Agency
Contract NegotiationÂ
We negotiate favorable contracts to promote the professional careers of our clients in the North American and European professional leagues. Our seasoned team aims to secure contract terms that offer immediate financial benefits to you and set the stage for sustained career growth. This includes but is not limited to salaries and bonuses, housing and living arrangements, travel, insurance, and medical treatment.
Player ManagementÂ
In building strong personal relationships with our clients, we are constantly in contact with our players to map out and, if necessary, adjust their career paths—from the junior leagues to D1 college hockey to the professional leagues in North America and Europe.
This is an ongoing strategic process in which 85 Sports leverages our clients’ potential and experience, examines a wide range of options, and takes advantage of the best opportunities available.
This requires a team of experienced hockey professionals who have developed close contacts and relationships with coaches, general managers, and scouts at the junior, college, and professional hockey levels in North America and Europe over the years.
Care ManagementÂ
At 85 Sports Management, LLC, we understand that success in hockey requires physical, mental, and emotional health.
So, whether it’s connecting our clients with highly regarded medical professionals for injury treatment and prevention, providing access to mental health resources or offering other services during challenging times, we’re committed to ensuring that our clients receive the comprehensive care and services possible to succeed. This includes not only making sure our clients receive excellent medical treatment but also working with the appropriate players’ association to obtain second medical opinions or assisting our clients in applying for workers’ compensation with the state.
Player Development
Player development is critical to helping our clients improve their performance and careers. Using some of the top hockey experts in skill development, power skating, strength and conditioning, and sports psychology, 85 Sports Management will assist our clients in ensuring they have access to all those professional resources to fine-tune their strengths and mitigate their weaknesses during the off-season.
NIL (Name, Image, Likeness)
Professional hockey players have unprecedented opportunities to monetize their image, name, and likeness. And that’s what our talent agency does. We help clients capitalize on these opportunities. From securing lucrative endorsement deals to establishing lasting partnerships with top brands, we’ll work hand-in-hand with you to maximize your earning potential & build your brand so you can make money even when you’re not in the rink.
