The position of goalie has an inherent romanticism: masked men clad with cool armor, serving as the last line of defense. They play entire games, with an unparalleled ability to impact outcomes. When they're on, they can single-handedly defeat a giant foe. They are the consummate underdogs and towering superheroes all at once.

since im a shorter goalie, i dont really have to go down into the butterfly as much as most goalies, and being a Goalie coach i tend to see goalies have a bad habit going down early just because they feel its the thing to do when faced with a shot.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment! I believe that some used to say Theo used to go down too early now and then, but it seems he's remedied that over the years.
