A few weeks back I had the pleasure of chatting with Steve McKichan about his experience as a goalie coach. Steve was an NHL goalie with the  Vancouver Canucks, runs the Future Pro Goalie School and is a former Leafs goalie coach.

3. Finally, leave a comment on this post by clicking below – just let me know about one of Steve’s articles that you enjoyed reading. The winner will be chosen next Monday by random draw

Today I’ve got two photos, in addition to the great shots people have kindly shared with us for the news section throughout the week.

First, reader Scott Slingsby was at the college game between Bentley and Mercyhurst and sent in this shot:

“Bentley goalie Kyle Rank (1) replaced Joe Calvi after Mercyhurst scored on 3 powerplay goals in less than 4 minutes. Here Rank draws a bead on an incoming Mercyhurst shot.”

Check out Scott’s Flickr Stream.

My new friend @sandihockeymom from Twitter sent me this. Her son was home from school with the flu – and what provided comfort for him but a goalie mask! Now that’s awesome!
