Used Book in Good Condition
This book explains a lot about the differences between distance running (aerobic fitness) and its benefits (V02 max IIRC) and anaerobic fitness (doing wind sprints for the amount of time you'll be on the ice). Running is good for overall endurance, but you'll also want to factor in sprints as that is what hockey is all about.
There's potential for a system of metrics in this book Complete Conditioning for Hockey. In chapter 2, Tests for Hockey Fitness, I believe they have some on ice tests that can be recorded, the data could be tracked for progress, and used toward developing individualized goals.
