S3:E14 NHL BOX CONTROL | SHADOW WORK | NEVER SEEN GOALIE KNOWLEDGE.

[@xKrispyx]

This is one of your finest videos, no question! Thanks for making resources like this available to us goalies, young and old alike. There’s something here for everybody!

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Thanks Kris

[@mtlgoalie62]

Amazing to get these visuals. Makes it really clear.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Hope it helps

[@elliot0169]

Wow! All of my years of playing goalie (10+ years, I am 22) I haven't known about this concept of box control... definitely be implementing this into my own game. Game Changer.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Awesome stuff Elliot

[@AimForFreedom]

This is an outstanding video. Hard to think about how much the box shrinks as you come out without seeing it like this! Thanks for this. I think it Will help my son and I in net for sure.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Reach out anytime for advice or help.

[@pikapp79]

Steve, thank you for all the awesome content. You've helped me stay relevant as a competitive goalie at 37. The game, the equipment, and by proxy the style of play has changed so much in my lifetime. And, your methodology and ability to spell things out have allowed me to continue to play the game I love

[@FutureProGoaltending]

You are welcome

That's it. Table Hockey Goalie is the hottest new save selection of 2022! 🔥 🔥

[@jimjohnston1127]

Awesome Demo! I'll try this tonight at my Ole Timers' Skate. Thanks for the info! Also anyone who hasn't seen the Angles 101 201 and 301, they are a must watch! Thanks Steve!

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Thanks Jim

[@KB9813]

This is by far the most in-depth video I've seen on box control!

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Thank you

[@PivotalG]

Love the shadow technique. It's such an eye-opener especially to the older goalies who think they're perfect and they see how much white there is. The best is when you have them drop into a butterfly and they see exactly why they keep getting scored on through the armpits. So many goalies drop leaving their arms high and then bringing them down after they hit. Great video, Coach! Thanks!

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Thank you

[@reaper2478]

When you now realize Keeks having psychic capability & making a vid on a play that happens during a game b4 it comes out.. 20 sec left, 4-4 tie.. best player comes into the zone, I challenge hard out of the crease to cut any angle shot!.. Guy scores high blocker side! 🤯🤯🤯🤯 No tie, no OT, no shoot out 🤦‍♂️ Lesson learned! Thx Coach! 👍👍

[@FutureProGoaltending]

I gotta say , I love these videos. I'm way past my prime to be taking lessons/ coaching, but these videos definitely give me a new outlook. thank you

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Thanks for watching Jon

[@tiogoala7654]

Wow! That shadow work and illustrator would have done wonders for me. This is definitely a 'ha ha!' moment, i can see the light.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

We all eventually see the light

[@devinparker8530]

This might be the most resourceful video for a goaltender I’ve ever seen

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Thank you

[@BonesyTV]

Really like the shadow studies. Love how it shows how effective a lower glove would be at the top of the crease and when pucks are in tight

[@FutureProGoaltending]

The man!

[@ecutler6261]

Shadow study is great, especially when the goaltender faces the net to see exactly what he is covering (or not covering). Thanks!

[@FutureProGoaltending]

True immediate feedback..

[@ECKR]

great video and visual explanation. much appreciated. Also, it was good listening to you during the Ed Belfour interview.

Best video I've seen on this channel (and there are lots of good ones). Insights that I can use immediately, explained clearly.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Thanks sir

[@yellowgorilla]

Double damn! This gave me a lot of insight about positioning on the short side post and adjusting glove position as depth and angle of the shooter/puck change. Saucy, baby!!!

Thanks for watching Mike

Thx Matt..

You're right about never having seen this before, very helpful. :)

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Thanks for tuning in….

[@OldFogeyGoalie]

Great video. I have often thought about taping a camera to the stick of a shooter and have them skate to various positions and I’ll line up on the shot just to get a visual of what I’m giving up. Alas, ice time ain’t free, nor is duct tape.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Correct..

[@tonyiozzo7111]

Hope so. Let me know

[@FutureProGoaltending]

You CAN pay if you want… lol… I appreciate you watching.. spread the word…

[@IrfanKhan-ur6wi]

I thought the last piece where the goalie held his ground and the light came closer was a great visual on how much more net you cover as long as you are aware to the shooter. Brilliant video!

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Thanks sir

This was just mind boggling!

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Hope it helps! I’m sure some of that was new to you?

[@cadensandusky]

@@FutureProGoaltending The ideas are the same but its definitely reinforcing it in a way I would never think of.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

@@cadensandusky did you know the top line on the box tilted so much? If you look at the study notes in the description it also has exact measurements of the box in different scenarios… good info to know. Thanks for watching!

@@FutureProGoaltending didn’t know about that! Thanks I’ll check it out, keep the great. Content coming!

[@Taylod1]

Shadow work with a few beverages might be fun game to play on a Friday night :)

[@FutureProGoaltending]

I tried to run that exact idea with my wife and it was a hard no….

[@jeffpalpant7644]

Fantastic video. Where did you get the ropes to set up the box? Want to set it up on my indoor practice area to really work on my angles.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

The blue ropes from the on ice demo came from Home Depot. And the pink string in the shop demo came from Canadian Tire. (Used for laying out construction projects…)

[@jeffpalpant7644]

@@FutureProGoaltending ordered kayak tie downs. They have ratchets and I can go out to 14 feet. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@Kvothe3]

Do you recommend having the gloves in different positions based on your depth? Seemed like in a few of the demonstrations, the glove coverage would end up above or outside the box as the goalie gained depth from the goal line.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Of course. Your gloves lower the closer than man gets dependent on your depth…. This is why guys really attack 16” to the blocker/ trapper as they “know” the gloves are high.

[@tylerfortin3239]

Seeing him shuffle on the cement with his pads hurt me. Absolutely loved the video though! Incredibly helpful

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Our goalie gear is free so no worries there…. Thanks for the kind words

[@rtroth2946]

Based upon the demos, would you suggest that as you advance out off the goal line the glove should come a little lower to not cover space outside the frame, or just keep your stance your stance? Also, this is a great demo for the justification to integrate the overlap on shots in the pie into one's game, something I've been trying to work on.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Yes your goal is to cover that box as comfortably as possible without hindering mobility.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

And on dot or lower angle shots you SHOuLDNnT use your standard butterfly flare. Your flare should mimic the given shooting triangle

[@rtroth2946]

@@FutureProGoaltending my old ass hips don't get too wide these days. So I compensate (don't we all) with a bigger challenge. In the pie I'm usually deeper than for shots in home plate.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

@@rtroth2946 as you should be. You’ll note in the experiment notes (link in description) the pie angle shots are aimed at disturbingly small weird shaped box.

[@rtroth2946]

@@FutureProGoaltending yeah found that to be illuminating. See what I did there?! But yeah weird. Now if I could just figure out why I always get sniped by right handed shots long side low blocker below the dot I might solve a life mystery. 😂

[@adambenjamin3003]

What a great visualization this is. Can understand how size can be an advantage here. Also a little sad as I suspect in another 5 -7 years the shortest goalie in the nhl will be 6 foot 6. They need to do something with the gear rules to even the playing field or it’s really going to discourage a lot of upcoming goalies. Tim Thomas was a smaller goalie but it seemed like he had oversized pants and chest protectors and that nothing could get through him. 🤷‍♂️

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Size selection bias unfortunately is here to stay…at the NHL level but for 99.9999 % who don’t play near that level it doesn’t matter. Just play the best you can with the tools you got!

[@PTS.MT.Goalie.BJJ.Andrew]

I'm surprised you didn't talk about one knee down against the post and about its pros and cons. True it's from a far away puck and No-one really does that from that far but maybe mentioning it would have been nice.

[@FutureProGoaltending]

Are you speaking of VH or RVH?

[@FutureProGoaltending]

I have frequently indicated the ONLY time for VH and RVH is when the man is threatening the net and IS WITHIN a stick length… so this video just provides video support to that. You note on the poor angle the net is only 5 square feet or net even without the goalie. So RVH on a gapped puck is wrong and why I started the #rvhfail😎

[@FutureProGoaltending]

And in the index you can easily find RVH 101 and RVH 201 😎

[@PTS.MT.Goalie.BJJ.Andrew]

@@FutureProGoaltending none. Back then there were no name for that position. Cary price amongst other used it 15 years ago. The left knee drops down when the right foot is against the post

[@FutureProGoaltending]

P. S. No 2 on o last night so I didn't have to do an old-school 2 pad poke check save... But... There was an opponent who deked by 3 players and I said ef it, mised a poke check, got his skates, stretch my leg out to make the save.... They don't call me funky flex for nothing 😆 flex for flexible... It's a French Quebec thing I guess...

[@FutureProGoaltending]

The poke check hat trick is when you get 1) puck 2) skates 3) send him ass over tea kettle…
