Powercleans are the #1 choice for any sport, other great lifts are: the snatch, Clean and jerk, Clean and press. The lift I recommend the most is the powerclean, add that one, and If you would like, throw in some other ones.Originally Posted by hockeyplayer45

I would suggest doing Power Cleans. I would also suggest lots of squats. Make sure to focus on balance and core strength.
For cardio, don't do too much long distance running, make sure to do lots of explosive running (sprints) and exercises for improving agility.
