I don't have much to add here Nick... most of the general points have been offered.
Your stick is probably too stiff (that's what she said) for you at the moment. If I remember correctly you got it from a semi pro guy right? I use an 87 flex stick which is average for guys like us (not pro) and most NHL guys use something like a 110 flex which is way stiffer. This would make a big difference for a guy trying to learn... it would also really effect your wrist shot.
Other than that, make sure the puck isn't too far ahead of you (noted before).
