LaCouvee Goaltending: Elevate Your Game – From Overlooked to Elite
At LaCouvee Goaltending, we are committed to transforming goalies from unconfident, inconsistent, and overlooked to high-performance athletes ready for junior hockey and beyond. Led by professional goaltender Connor LaCouvee, our program is built on elite-level training, structured mentorship, and career-focused advising to ensure our goalies have the tools, skills, and mindset to succeed at the highest levels of the game.
Our Philosophy: The Three Pillars of Goaltending
LaCouvee Goaltending is built upon the technical, tactical, and mental pillars of goaltending. Success in the crease requires mastery in all three areas:
- Technical Excellence – Skating, positioning, save selection, and execution to develop a strong foundation.
- Tactical Awareness & Goalie IQ – Reading the play, recognizing patterns, thinking like a player, anticipating threats, and making smart decisions.
- Mental Resilience – Confidence, focus, and the ability to perform under pressure.
It is my goal for your career to be better than mine ever was. I want to provide goalies with the knowledge, tools, and opportunities to reach levels they never thought possible.
Two Ways to Train with Us
At LaCouvee Goaltending, we offer two primary ways to develop your game and reach the next level:
- In-Person Training – Through our Train Like A Pro Summer Camps, goalies experience high-intensity, hands-on development with elite coaching.
- Online Training – Through the Goalie Peak Performance Blueprint, our mentorship + advising program provides structured development, video breakdowns, and career guidance.
