I thought your positioning was great. Out of the crease like Dominic Hasek and Tim Thomas really cutting down the angle.
I understand what DaHockeyWall means by having to deal with a bad rebound. So, if you are athletic like Hasek or Thomas and play like them, you are going to have to athletically flop back on bad rebounds.

you gotta remember, they're professional athletes and most people can't move as quick as them and aren't as tall. you gotta adjust your style to you abilities. if he can get back there i'd be amazed but most people can't dive 3 ft in a second and if u want thomas on the side wall hes not out that far. but i see what your saying

Just movement I got some **** to work on lol

Another movement vid

Be careful with your stick.. in almost every movement your stick is off the ice ever-so-slightly, which could lead to five hole goals.

And this isn't meant as any offense to you whatsoever, but every time I see these movement drill videos I realize more and more how truly inefficient it is and how rarely such movements are used in games. Take any goalie in the NHL, for example. The only one who comes anywhere even remotely close to doing movements like these is Fleury, and that's a stretch. Most of the better technical goalies I've ever known never went anywhere. In general, movements like these simply aren't applicable in games, especially in higher levels. Makes you wonder why that might be.

I know it's not "right" but I find it a hundred times for comfortable to have my stick just off the ice. If a shot isn't imminent then I don't really bother.

And yeah as far as that goes...I'll agree with on that you don't see the big t-push's as often. But the butterfly pushes and slides you see a ton.
But even the t-push is applicable if you need to get from point A to B as fast as possible. If I have enough time to not use it, then I don't just to simplify thing, but I think it's useful to be able to do and do well.

Very technically sound goalies can go either way..
Carey Price, Tuukka Rask, Jack Campbell, etc being the good
Robin Billingham, Corey Wogtech, etc being the not as good

From last season...I got bored of editing it and skipped over the 3rd period. We won this game 3-1 lol.

This was from last night..
