In this episode presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, we talk with NHL Goaltender turned Broadcaster Marc Denis – world junior Champion who in one season played 77 games (!) for the Columbus Blue Jackets – quite the contrast to today where we place so much importance on tandems. Kevin also chats with Carey Price in the locker room on a variety of topics from practice habits, playing on instinct in games and his mental approach.
Cam brings us a goalie-parent focused edition of Questions for Cam – but there’s still some nuggets in there for goaltenders of all ages as well.
