Another Fantastic breakdown and analysis, Jimmy! The detailed description of how to make the angle change, the order to do it in, and the importance of fully loading on the pushing foot: all really important stuff for those learning the position to understand. A subtle little thing I noticed, and liked, was on the glove save, when Merzlikins retreats to his right post, transitioning into RVH, he taps the post with the shaft of his stick to confirm exactly where it is. To all the young and beginner goalies out there, like a blind man with a cane, use that stick to confirm exactly where your posts are without breaking visual attachment to the puck.
And a quick side note, as a Canadian goaltender I can confirm we are being approached by the government to volunteer to become mechanically enhanced. It's Hockey Canada's desperate attempt to reclaim our position as the dominant goaltending nation. Of course Bettman is involved as well, the slimy worm. I'll probably get black listed for sharing that secret, but I refuse to bow to Gary Bettman and the corrupt leadership of Hockey Canada.
I'm just about to start my master's program in Applied Behaviour Analysis, which I'm hoping to use to get into sports training. I've always been so interested by goalie training in the NHL and your videos have been incredibly informative!
