BLOCKER SAVES
!
!
The blocker save commonly takes a back seat to the flashy glove save
but it is probably more important in terms of rebound control. Like your trapper
the blocker should be held to the side but moved forwards slightly towards
the shooter. Again, this cuts down the area open to the shooter and it allows
you to see the puck strike your blocker with more ease.
