If Ace Lightning was going to write, direct and cast a horror movie it would have nothing to do with hockey, because after all, hockey is his life.
One of the scariest and misunderstood woodland creatures is the squirrel. It scares him just thinking about what they are up to. A horde of murderous squirrels would be a fun horror movie, because maybe they gang up on humans, murder them and rip them apart, harvesting their body parts much like the common acorn or nut. Not much human can do and have you ever seen a squirrel? They are unkillable.
For casting, it seems like a no brainer to cast Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney as the couple who are trying to survive and defeat the squirrels once and for all. Their on screen chemistry is matched by no one. Perhaps Tracy Morgan can be the voice of the main squirrel, as he is hilarious. Clive Owen plays his brother, the real mastermind. Not animated.
Every practice, all the players make it very clear that the goalies are the only reason that the Vancouver Whalers have any wins, Trent Mackenzie dominates, usually allowing one goal all practice, to keep the forwards spirits up even though they couldn't score on a 6 year-old. Levon has a special drill that he runs with Mackenzie, where him and Dominic Enselmo rush the goalie over and over till they score, or Mackenzie stops them 100 times. Dominic will run the drill every practice for the next 10 years until they manage to score, no matter how dirty the goal. The closest they ever got was when Levon tripped and fell on Mackenzie, leaving Dominic a wide open net, but he somehow hit the post when he shoveled it in. Trent Mackenzie is the most valuable player on Vancouver, though Noxus might disagree, his opinion doesn't count since he is is a defense liability.

Option2 Keeping the focus on after getting a bad goal in, is one of the most difficult thing to do for a goalie. We are the last line of defense so when there is a goal there is almost always a percentage that it's our fault. We need to get pass that to be ready for the next offensive and give our best at all time. After a bad goal, we need to think that the game is not over and you need to continue giving your best because if you let it go it will affect the rest of the team and it will only getting worst. Overconfident is not really a thing in my opinion for a goalie because we need to have confidence in our abilities, but I've never seen a goalie that is really overconfident. That's a personal point of view of course, but for those that is the case, they need to pay attention to that.
The Falcons producing a horror movie would be an easy task. We have a terrifying locker room, full or monsters and demons alike. The specter of Dunkler is known to linger within our halls. I would imagine our movie would be based around another team coming to the Haunted House of Skree and wandering around while encountering different terrors in each segment of the house. The walls would twist and the doorways lead to rooms they should not - a non euclidean floor plan. As they roam they would be leapt upon by the skeletal fish known as Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen (he was number one!). In a panic, they would grab his hat, which would greatly offend our dear Smitty. In retribution, he would have no choice but to summon his army of zombified fish creatures who would descend from hell upon our haunted houses invaders. Left with no other choice, they would return the hat and vacate the premises - the Detroit Falcons once again routing another team.
During the game, Anthony tries to help and support his goalies as much as possible. First of all, there's no such thing as different treatments regarding the two goalies no matter their position in the team (starter or backup) because they are part of the team as much as any other player. Goalies are arguably the most valuable players because if you allow too many goals every game, even is you score, you'll lose more than often. During the warmup, it is important to make sure they face good quality shots but it is also as important that they don't get shots that could injure them or that don't even touch the net. Goalies need to get warmed up to shots they can work with. You don't want to be too soft because in the game, the oppponents won't be. After letting a goal in, Anthony always goes and cheers them up to make sure that we stay in tha game and encourage them to keep going and working, the same as the team. So, all in all, goalies are very important and teams need to make sure they're supporting them in any way possible.
Colorado Raptors PR team wants to host a short horror movie and want to make it a scary one. As a result of the initiation process, they have decided to make Yuri Boyka III as the villain/monster in this short horrow. Yuri Boyka III will be playing a similar role to Jason. One major difference is that instead of the classic goalie mask, Boyka III will be wearing a dino goalie mask and his weapon of murder will be a goalie stick instead of the machete. To make Boyka III more scary looking, they will do make up on his body to make half his body burned and the other half with a jump suit. THe premise of the movie will be Boyka III going into the locker room of other SHL teams and murdering the opposition one at a time with a goalie stick. Boyka III will be impenetrable such that weapons or knives do no damage to the man.

As soon as they said horror movie, I knew exactly what it was going to be. It would be a movie about the Panthers team – everyone on the team will get a role in the movie, and everyone will have some amount of screen time as themselves – and each player is constantly getting chased by lions. The team has to work together to either eliminate or get themselves to safety from these lions or else they will get torn to shreds.
Of course, the lions are representing the rivalry the Panthers have with San Francisco and as such, they know how difficult it can be to fend off these lions at times. But since this is a movie that is being produced by our team and we can do what we want, the Panthers prevail in the end, killing off every last lion. Just like last season, the Panthers prevail and go on to do big things and become victorious.
Will Tomlander knows that he needs a focused goalie in order to win the game against the opposing team. He supports his goalie in any way possible that he can, before, during and after the game. Before the game he gives his goalies space, in order to focus and maintain their mental sharpness, and also during warm ups he makes sure to test them so that they can get dialed in and ready to catch shots. During the game Will Tomlander makes sure to keep the net front clear when he can, and to make sure that his goalie can see the shots coming even though Will Tomlander is trying to block these shots from getting through. In the game, if the goalies save a shot, especially after Will screws up, he makes sure to thank them. After the game, Will makes sure to gives his goalies hugs and pats because they are something that deserves the best, because they are the goodest bois and girls.
Hamilton Steelhawk's horror movie would take advantage of Robo Sven's unique biomechanical makeup to play a spoof off of Terminator. Think something like Shaun of the Dead, but with the Terminator instead, and the zombies are all opposing hockey players. In "Sven of the Ice", Sven finds his normal hockey life transformed when all opposing hockey teams become mindlessly aggressive players that only have aggression and fighting turned up to 20. Even the opposing goalies don't even register that there's a puck on the ice, they just want to hit and fight. Sven isn't just trying to win these games, he's trying to survive. Of course the most important thing is to leave the game alive so Sven and his teammates can head to the Winchester, grab a pint, and wait for this whole thing to blow over. Eventually, after a good amount of pints and comradery, the virus subsides and the team is left wondering if it was all just a weird dream.
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.

S61 Four Star Cup - Game-Winning Goal in the clinching Game 4
Crazy Tomato II is a dman with a pretty bad shot so there's not much he can do to help the goalie warm-up shot wise but during the game, he helps the goalie stay focused and lock in by keeping the other players out of the crease, and if anyone tries to mess with the goalie they'll be getting a shove so pretty much I just make sure no one messes with the goalie so he can stay focused. During intermission, I interact with my goalie quite a bit especially if they are having an off game because in my opinion having a bad mindset in net is just going to make the game go worse and worse so cheering them up in the intermission/after a bad goalie is definitely something tomato II does but it does depend on the Goalie because some goalies would much rather just be left alone
Staying focussed for a whole 60 minutes of hockey (if you are not being switched out for being terrible) is quite the difficult task. As hockey is a game of speed and fast changing posessions you really have to stay on edge for the whole game. Every attacking posession can dramatically change with a giveaway into breakaway and you have to be awake and ready for when that happens. This differentiates the sport from soccer where the field is more lenghthy or Football where you have build-in pauses every now and then. Gino had some troubles with staying focussed, especially after conceding goals, because frankly, he hates losing or being beaten by a cheeky offense skater.
To stay focussed Gino has worken with a mental coach, a professional psychologist who he worked with on certain, secret strategies to keep focus and get rid of past bagagge as conceded goals. It's something that some player have already done and Gino can only recommend working with a coach as iit really brought up his Mental Toughness to a whole new level.
I agree that goalies are so important for the team. A good one giving the rest of the team a very good and save feeling on the ice. For the warm up they like to have some good sniper on the team. Because they can bring them to a good level right at the warm up. That also will help them to be focussed for the game. We players mostly need a break but the goalies always scream in our faces that we should work harder on him to make sure we players can have this good and save feeling. Sometimes it is hard to believe that but yeah the goalies are workhorses everytime. It is a honor everytime to be with them on the ice in warm up but also games or practice. For me it is also important to have a top goalie on my side to being better as forward and try new things to score goals on them. That for sure can help all of us to be better and more creative in the game against other goalies.
