Does anyone have a good recommendation for a pregame meal (hockey)? Also, how long before playing would be the optimum time to eat?

Thanks!

I used to play hockey and found that a good pregame meal would be pasta, its has a very good amount of carbs which will give you energy for the game also has some good protien which will help feed those carbs to ur muscles. I suggest eating about 45-60 mins before a game, you dont want to play on a full stomach. goodluck with your game!

How about pre loading of nutrition a week before a tournament when 3-5 games are played over a short timeframe?
