And in our weekly gear segment, we go to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports for a closer look at the updated Bauer 950 mask.

Episode 316 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features PWHL Playoff MVP and 2025 World Championship gold-medal winner Gwyneth Philips.

In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, Philips takes us back through a whirlwind rookie season in the PWHL, including coming off the bench for injured college teammate Aerin Frankiel in the third period of the gold medal game and how it jump started her late season and playoff run with the Ottawa Charge after starter Emerance Maschmayer was also injured. Philips, who went off the grid camping shortly after the season ended, also talked about finding balance on and off the ice, including between her athletic -- sometimes acrobatic -- style and times when efficiency is the better choice, and shared great advice on how to approach the parts of practice that aren't greta for goalies that runs counter to that style, plus so much more. 

In the Parent Segment, presented by Stop It Goaltending U the App, we continue to empty the mailbag, answering questions about catching pucks in the pocket, preparing for draft season in various leagues, and Hutch gets on his soapbox to talk about goalie shortages. 

A special can't miss 22-minute video of Hart Trophy winner Connor Hellebuyck breaking down his positioning and save selection while watching a variety of different types of attacks. 

Another simple but effective drill from new Seattle Kraken goalie coach Colin Zulianello designed to get the eyes and hands going while also picking up the pace ahead of practice.

Continuing our series with Michael Lawrence on his "Holding Feet" stance with a drill designed to help you get better at holding your edges and improve your patience and mobility on the ice.
