Hand eye coordination is something that most definitely can be trained, but some people and animals alike are just born with a much greater affinity for it than others are. You see athletes all over the world across all disciplines of sports train in a different manner but when it comes to hockey, its all back to stick work. Nash will stay out on the ice longer after each pass working on his stick handling and knocking pucks out of the air. Even for a defenseman making sure to hit pucks square on and stop them is a really important skill. When the opposing team is trying to clear the zone you have to do your best and keep it in there to get pucks back on net. Its not about virtual effort but its the sum of all the difficult things and you just need to practice. Just have someone shoot pucks at you and put in the time and you'll get better!
