Training Technical vs Compete in Offseason

Devon Levi’s last Pro Reads video breakdown ended with a purely reactionary save in tight, which led to a great discussion on finding the balance between the technical elements that put him in a position to make it, and when to let go of those and just play on instinct.

“Not every save is going to be super clean or super technically sound,” Levi explained in the video. “You try to in practice, as much as you can, work on your technical game. But I think going into a game, being able to kind of drop all that stuff and let it show up, probably the hardest thing to do in goaltending, but also the most important, it to let that go. And when game day comes, it’s just time to read the play and just compete.”

So how do we do that as goalies? How do we help train that as goalie coaches?
