Episode 314 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features a fantastic interview with longtime NHL goalie and coach Rick Wamsley.
In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, Wamsley touches on everything from 13 seasons playing in the NHL over three decades, to coaching goalies in the League for another 15 years, including going from "goalie on Tuesday to goalie coach on Wednesday" with Felix Potvin and the Toronto Maple Leafs in the early 1990s. There are great stories on every aspect of the game and position, from his start as a Montreal Canadiens draft pick and fellow goalies sewing Tupperware on their gear, to having Jacques Plante as a coach, learning from watching John Davidson in the AHL, and coaching Craig Anderson, as well as some really interesting lessons that applied to goaltending when he started, and still hold true today, 45 years later.
We also talk about Wamsley's work as an OHL consultant and how it led to a new online venture, GoalieU designed to help goalies improve through video work. Check it out because we've got an exciting new partnership coming that will benefit InGoal Members too!
