I want to know how to become a good hockey goalie
Hard shots are not easy to take full against body or pads.
In school i played field hockey goalie and i tried the gorilla stance and it tended to work very well!
If you hang your arms next to your body stick facing in or out and bend a little that your stomach sucks in a bit.
Helped me not be that afraid of being tanked in the stomach.
if you playing ice hockey try fill that goal be a presence!
good luck

What is off-sides in Ice Hockey
A player without possession of the puck and with both skates in the offensive zone before the puck becomes "offside."
The essence of the rule is to prevent play from being reduced to end-to-end passing to players camping out in the offensive/attacking zone.

What is the best kind of skate for a 4 year old who is learning ice hockey?
It's great to start your kids with ice skating early. It's a skill that translates to a lot of
other activities. The best kind of
skate to get is the kind that your kid can put your entire shoed foot in and is
then you strap them in the front and the back.
This is the best because he can basically walk in them which creates a
great transition from walking to skating.
