Yo I’ve been loving these videos. As a fellow 2010 AAA goalie these are pretty good. I find that one superstition that has actually helped me was locking in when skating from the boards and back when the whistle is blown. For example if the last digit is even I go to the left, and if it’s odd I go to the right. And then I switch it up if I’m having a bad game

Oh I thought this was like soccer goalies.

Where do u play

I was a goalie from a poor family, so most of my equipment was donated. I played with regular skates for four years. I never owned a pair of goalie skates. I was told I was a really good goalie, but when I went to a new province with a single Mom who couldn't afford new equipment, I was playing with donated stuff. I was relentlessly teased by the kids who came from wealthy families and I ended up quitting. Who knows how far I could have gone, but it can be a mean spirited game from the get go

Only 25+ years of use!

Knight is in a great position. Until he overtakes Bob or makes Bob expendable. No rush. Knight is still going to be a stud.

Start incorporating monkey bar workouts if you want to be longer and broader.

Taller is always better.

No I didn’t Ashley me canucks fan❤❤

Yes dude my fav pads

I'll quote the Gump Worsley, "You gotta stop it, it doesn't matter how tall you are, how short you are, how you stop it, just stop it, if you can stop the puck you are a goaltender." The Gumper was 5'7, maybe 5'8, was an elite goaltender, did it all without a mask, won 4 Cups, and was one of the best of the 1960s. He played with none of the padding against Bobby Hull, Gordie Howe, Frank Mahovlich, all guys who could shoot the puck at 100 MPH without difficulty. Height can help in some ways, you cover more net, but that doesn't guarantee greatness, Gary Smith at 6'4 was a good goalie on some terrible teams, but he didn't the elite talent of his peers like Gump Worsley, Bernie Parent 5'10, Tony Esposito 5'11, Gerry Cheevers 5'11, Eddie Giacomin 5'11, Rogie Vachon 5'8. The tall goalie isn't always the best, and considering the greatest goalies in my book, are Terry Sawchuk, Glenn Hall, and Turk Broda, 2 out of 3 meet your ideal range, Sawchuk and Hall both at 5'11, however, Turk Broda at 5'9 was the best playoff goalie of them all, a GAA of 1.97 over his career and 5 Stanley Cups to show for it. The key is to stop the puck, figure out your style, get your reflexes right.

Nice review. I’m still on the fence for this. I see how it can help hand eye coordination. My worries are the price, after the half of subscription special ends. And the whole mess with Meta Quest headsets having issues with the updates many people had

i played hockey all through elementary, middle and high school and i always played wing a 50/50 of both left and right wing and i wouldn't have wanted it any other way

Vasilevskiy is still the most skilled goalie in the world in terms of movement and he's 6'4, it's not that you have to be a certain height to be good at any skill, it's that you have to be obsessed with working on your craft to get your skills to a certain level. Biology/height just plays a part in how easy it is to develop these different skills.

I'm not very good just large. I tell people this all the time. I cover a lot of net at 6'2" but my size limits my mobility (talking girth not height) and I am 53 years old, hips and knees don't work like they used to and I'm fluent in a completely different style of goaltending. That being said I got into hockey late and never trained like these guys do. When you have the size and mobility, like an Andrei Vasilevskiy, the goal posts appear to be closer and the bar seems to be lower. I don't want to be a negative Nancy here but competition is tough and every advantage a person has the better. 2 goalies with the exact same talent level, one is 5'11" one is 6'4" the taller goalie is going to get the harder look (call it physics). The only thing a shorter goal can do is put in the extra effort, first on the ice, last off. Make it so you are the more practiced goalie. 5'9" at 14 is what I was (my grandma had it on her door frame), so depending on genetics you might be the 6'2" (even possibly bigger, look at your parents) goalie but that shouldn't deter you from being the first on last off.

4:51 Me? I am about to spend $1500 on 8 EEE skates. I have a RUclips short of me getting fitted a few days ago. Thats my fricking pain in my ass nothing fits me. I am 6'4" 245lbs: I just ordered custom G7 36+1 pads...

This is put under a microscope as a goalie, but the reality is the same for a player. The calmer you are, the better you play in basically all sports. Keep up the good work

Spencer Knight. Thats a good laugh

im 5 at 14 rip

great and funny vid

Igor Shesterkin is Russian and his actual name is Shestyorkin hence his name on EP. There is multiple players that have their name written differently when coming to North America.

Personally I would say the ideal goalie height is 6'1-6'3. I think that is a height u don't lose that much of your speed but still have enough size to cover more easily. I feel 5'11 is already a lot on the smaller side and has to compensate for size. U need to have elite pucktracking and movement to make it at that height. On your point about pucktracking being better when smaller, I think that is the case too but bigger goalies can also practise upon that but smaller goalies can't improve as much in covering the net. When you are smaller u need to have more skill, just like with skaters. Smaller goalies go often overlooked like we have seen with Petteri Rimpinen who went undrafted last draft even though he was great in Mestis last season.
