"Dan brings an exemplary work ethic and a great deal of hockey knowledge to his teams. He is the best defensive forward I have ever coached. I personally have learned a great deal from Dan Bylsma."

- Robby Laird, former Coach, Phoenix Roadrunners
now a scout for the LA Kings.

"Bylsma made his mark the old-fashioned way - through hard work. He was a valued penalty-killer on one of the best units in the NHL, and was doing what every coach loves - going into the corners and grinding it out."

- The Hockey News 11/5/96 pg. 10-11

"Your (Dan's) methods of teaching skating not only improved my own skating skills but will help me be a instructor to the kids I coach. I recommend this camp to every coach. Besides, it was the most fun I've had on skates in a long time. You guys are a blast."
