HOCKEY … For Minors
Slide, Don’t Skate Did you ever notice the way NHL goalies slide back and forth across the goal mouth at the beginning of each period? For one thing, the ice has been freshly surfaced and may not be perfectly smooth. For another, the temperature inside the building affects the ice so it can vary from fast to slow in minutes. When play is under way you. as the goalie, will have to beable to shift quickly from side to side to cover shots from every point.
