Individual risks
In this sport everything is about decision making. This is a really fast sport and a bad decision, even a slow decision can turn into a goal. How crazy, right? Allow me to say something, it may be unpopular. Decision making matters when you can understand what is the right
Goalie positions, how to understand them
What a topic. Compared with the field players, this is the individual technique for a goalie. For me as goalie coach and goalie, positions and skating are the foundations for this beautiful position. So understanding the positions and doing them is the way to go. However, if you want to
