The mental game -help starts before the game. Listening to some music that keeps hammering the goalies mind that they are a brick wall and nothing can pass them. Then when the warmup starts its first some high shots for the gloves, both sides just to get those arms moving. The shots get lower, testing the legs movement. It's pretty easy shots, with the sole purpose of letting the goalie become warm and believe that this night is the night for the best game. When that's done the rest of the team join in on the shooting warmup. Half the team in one corner, the other half in the other corner. One player goes up to the blueline, turns and gets a pass from the opposite corner and then goes in for a shot. and then some other alternatives on that one that gets more and more advanced, both for players and goalies. During the actual game a classic stick on pad with a “great save” or “that was just unlucky” or “ That ones on me, sorry”. Usually that does the trick to keep the goalies minds in the right place. |
