S77 PT #2: Bigger, Better, Faster, Stronger Due: Sunday, June 23rd @ 11:59 PM PST

Written option 2:

Given that a goalie most directly competes with enemy attackers, that is the most relevant situation to consider. Ju-gong has on more than one occasion had to go up against skaters with scoring talent well ahead of his development. Generally things in that situation go a few ways. Usually he can adapt to the style of forward and give himself a better % by changing stances. If the shooter is particularly good at placing shots down low, he can rather seamlessly take a more butterfly approach to mitigate the damage done. Another more risky trick is to simply save off anticipation alone, basically making educated guesses. If it works once it might get into the forwards head, but if it doesn’t then well… that goes along the lines of the last option. Sometimes if a forward is simply on another level for that day, Ju-gong has learned to accept that he might be collecting quite a few pucks from the net. This is never an excuse, but sometimes the hand is just that hot.
