S57 PT #1 - Attributes Off The Ice
|
![]() Registered PEANUT!
As a goaltender, mental toughness is the biggest attribute that is an important asset both on and off the ice. On the ice, when you let a puck slip by you it sucks. You are the last chance at keeping your team in the game sometimes, so being able to block out the creeping doubt of a bad game, or a "bad goal" is huge. Out here off the ice, we're still dealing with a global pandemic that is currently showing no signs of letting up, especially where I'm from. Having to be stuck at various times, quarantining away from friends and family and not knowing what tomorrow will bring in terms of cures or losses...it definitely takes a toll on a persons mental health just as much as it does their physical health. In short, being able to block out the negativity and keep yourself grounded and focused on the task, or tasks, at hand is essential.
