The Art of Ice-Hockey Goaltending. The Oracle of Ice Hockey. I.
The Ascendance In Finland not long after World War II, kids would play a street game called ice ball, which had few rules and less strategy. They’d scramble through neighborhoods buried in snow, batting and kicking a piece of cork the size of a tennis ball—graduating, eventually, if they were keen and had money for skates, to a soccer field covered with ice. But some of the more serious kids wanted to play hockey.

Babcock won't tolerate poor starts from Bernier. Chris Johnston November 29, 2015, 12:35 AM Chris Johnston November 29, 2015, 12:35 AM TORONTO — When a goalie has lost all confidence and is about to make just his second start in a month, you arrive to the rink expecting something bad to happen.

Closing Holes for fewer Goals! An In depth look at hip, groin and adductor movements. More than ever, athletes of all sports are focusing on muscular mobility rather than sheer strength, power, and agility in order to better perform their duties.
There is not one single position in any sport I can think of that mobility is more prevalent than that of a goaltender – and to their credit, most goalies (meticulous as they are) have already developed some sort of pre-game/pre-practice routine that they feel helps them get loose and feel comfortable prior to skating. As I said before, most goalies after a certain age will take the time to at least do something in terms of stretching or a warm-up that they think helps them. Biron voices frustration with bad-angle goals. If he could do it over and over again, Braden Holtby says he would stop Andreas Athanasiou’s bad-angle, game-winning shot Tuesday night 999 straight times.
Former NHL goaltender and current television analyst Marty Biron has a different opinion. “It was a pretty typical play,” Holtby told reporters following the Capitals’ 1-0 loss in Detroit Tuesday, a game decided by Athanasiou’s goal 4:06 into the second period.

Encouraged by fans’ desire to cheer passionately for their favorite teams every game of the season, I respectfully propose that draft order should be determined by performance after mathematical elimination. Analysis of historical data suggests optimistic statistical methods based on functions of winning can end tanking in sports.
I hypothesize that when the incentive for teams to intentionally handicap themselves is removed, the expected elimination draft order is highly correlated with the expected reverse standings. The risk of allowing a poorly performing team to lose the top draft pick is outweighed by the benefit of eliciting intense competition, inspiring fans’ interest, and preserving sports’ integrity.
