S5:E10 GOALIE POSITIONING | ANGLE | DEPTH | SQUARENESS PLUS 5 DRILLS

S5:E10 GOALIE POSITIONING | ANGLE | DEPTH | SQUARENESS PLUS 5 DRILLS
We get star OHL Goaltender, Ryerson Leenders from the Mississauga Steelheads and future NHL star out for an important segment on positioning.
We discuss and demonstrate what angle, depth and squareness mean and a common mistake laymen make when using the word "square" as it relates to goaltending.
Static and Dynamic Gut traps are broken down on a technical basis with the key inputs required for success of midline puck management.
We also show you 5 drills that will grow your game regardless of what level you play at.

Another great video Coach. Sometimes we forget the basics and try to over complicate things with fancy styles.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Yes indeed

[@puckstopper1937]

That last throw looked personal

[@FutureProGoaltending]

It was.😎

[@joelepera3267]

Last drill is great

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Thank you

[@ecutler6261]

Great video, last drill shows how important movement after the first save is. That's how most goals are scored on me. Working on tracking the puck and quick reaction after the save. Thanks!

This was a lot of fun to watch. Good tips to pick up!

Great video coach - terrific reminders (especially for 'developing beer leaguer like me 😆)! One question on drill #4: I have been getting beat on solo breakaways coming in at a similar angle - wide, and hard crash on the net - essentially to the goal-line side of your stick in the drill. At what point do you change depth and potentially save selection when you have a forward uncontested driving the near post? Especially, knowing they could early release (like the drill), try stuffing the near post, drag across the front, or around the back of the net for the wrap around? As someone without formal coaching, I've been struggling to figure out the most efficient way to play this threat. This drill makes me realize that I've both dropped too early and cheated on angle, leaving the near post high as an option, but are there other techniques to employ (like inverted "Y" theory)? Really appreciate any feedback/advice you could provide!

My biggest long term flaw is that I center on the posts not the puck.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Awareness is key

[@slagan9]

Any advice for beer leaguers on how to correct bad habits? I’ve noticed I’ve started dropping my glove hand (mostly noticing as pucks fly past it). Just creeped into my game in recent months. Need to fix it before the demote me to the light beer league.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Do you get any practice or just the games?

[@T0rche]

Hi from Québec Steve! Love your videos! Your explanations are always clear, well articulated and to the point. Your experience shows! As a beer league goalie myself, I would really love to hear your input on a specific subject (maybe even see it mentioned in a future video? lol🤞) I was wondering if you had any specific tips, tricks or drills for situations when the play is behind the net and never seems to end. Situations when it just drags on, and on, and on, and the guy with the puck seems to be going to one side, then fakes it and goes back the other side, then one of your own players tries to take the puck from him and a battle for the puck ensues, right behind you, etc. I never really seem to know EXACTLY how to position myself in those types of situations. Sometimes I can lose patience and get punished for it. I know there probably isn't a TON of theory on this subject but any help would be appreciated!

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Easy Peary…. With extended behind net play simply put your blocker side skate on the post and lean the rest of your body to the middle of the net. Slightly turn into the net so you can easily just rest in that position and watch the drama behind the net. If they quickly come out blocker side you are already on the post and if they end up coming out glove side it is easy to see as your head isn’t flopping around and the glove side post is much easier to get your stick in the passing lane as you arrive at that post.

[@T0rche]

@@FutureProGoaltending Thanks for the quick reply! I'll definitely try to apply that during my next game (not many practice occasions as a beer leaguer unfortunately). Keep up the good work!

[@frankcorl6976]

@@T0rche , @FutureProGoaltending Thanks for that Reply! Going to try tonight. The older I get the less neck rotation I have so seeing stuff well from RVH is getting tougher and tougher. This technique should help!

[@legoobear6810]

Coach, if you trust your glove hand and played Catcher (baseball) - would you say it’s OK to “Kipper Catch” across your body?? Not that I try to do it deliberately, but sometimes I just react that way from old baseball habits. Or should I actively be trying to break that habit?

[@FutureProGoaltending]

I would avoid crossing your midline in case there is any type or redirect

[@legoobear6810]

@@FutureProGoaltending Thanks for the reply, Coach. I’ll work on keeping the glove on one side!

would have been great to see Keeks make a save when he was filming behind Ryerson (if he missed.. didn't look like he was going to but.... amazing how vulnerable you feel when you have no pads on eh..

They way I played as a pro I would have let it in through my five hole.
