SCREEN SHOTS
!
!
In hockey today players are bigger and faster. The screen shot is a large part
of hockey and this increase in size is a problem. Many goalies complain to anyone
who will listen that they were screened and that a particular goal was not their fault.
In my books this excuse shouldn't be used. A goaltender by definition is supposed to
stop every shot from entering the net.

We all know this is impossible but this is the goal: TO FIND THE PUCK
!
To play a screen shot the goalie must do everything in their power not to be
screened in the first place. Sounds difficult doesn't it? Use your peripheral vision to
see opponents who are potential screens and be aware before the screen is set that
one is coming.
