How To Be 'Square' AND On Angle


Absolutely the perfect explanation and graphic representation of how to stay square to both the puck and net. 

Coaches are always telling the goaltender to "BE SQUARE to the puck", but they seldom, if ever, explain to young goals that 'being square to just the puck' is completely useless, if the goaltender does not understand that that is only HALF the key to playing an angle. 

Being square to both the puck and net are BOTH required if the goaltender hopes to stay on angle and 'be square to the puck'
