Episode 299 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features a fun and informative interview with 17-season NHL veteran Olaf Kolzig.
In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, Kolzig shares stories from a career spent almost exclusively with the Washington Capitals, including the arrival of newly crowned NHL goal scoring leader Alex Ovechkin, winning the 2000 Vezina Trophy and the mental breakthrough that helped him reach those heights after battling consistency earlier in his career. Kolzig also shares insights and advice from his current role with the Capitals in goalie and player development, including several valuable lessons for young goalies and parents, as well as a recent meeting organized by Connor Hellebuyck, who wears No. 37 because of Kolzig.
In the Parent Segment, presented by Stop It Goaltending U the App, we build on Kolzig’s talk about the importance of learning to take care of yourself off the ice with a cooking and nutrition challenge for all young goalies and their parents.
We also review this week’s Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, which features Cam Talbot of the Detroit Red Wings explaining how to manage a moving (or flash) screen, and how working with the Vizual Edge vision and cognitive training platform has improved his results in traffic.
