SHL GM SHL GM Code: Written Option 2: You could make an argument that goalies is the most important part of the team and to compete at highest level you need yours to be at their best. Goalies need to stay on top of their game for all of the 60 minutes to give their team a chance to win, part of it is based on physicality but mental side is also very important. For SKATERS: How does your player help your goalie stay focused during the game? How does your player help the goalie get in form during warm up? Or help them keep their head cool after the letting in a goal? Do they interact with them during the intermission? For GOALIES: How your player stays focused for the whole game? How do they get back to being comfortable after allowing a goal, specially if it is a bad one? Is it ever possible to get overconfident and lose the focus that way? What does your player hope the skaters of the team do for them? How much can the other goalie help your player during warmup and intermissions? I strongly agree that goaltending is the most important position on the ice. Teams cannot win without solid goaltending. Championships are won from goaltending and a good goalie can win you games as easily as a bad goalie can lose you games. It is crazy for one of the most team-oriented sports to come down to one position, but that realistically is what it comes down to. Goalies are the lifeblood of a team and are a necessity. What I do, as a forward, to help goalies where I can is clearing out the lanes and making sure that there is no trash left lying in the front of the net. A good goalie can even make mistakes, and that is what the other five guys on the ice are there for. Keep the puck out of your net. Make sure to support the goalie and keep the junk goals away. That’s how you win championships. _____________ 156 words _____________ |
