About this product

Product Information

A complete book on hockey goaltending by Jim Corsi, a former NHL goalie and current goaltender coach for the Buffalo Sabres. This book covers all facets of this most demanding position, from the history of goaltending to the psychology of playing goalie, along with tips and technique for players and coaches. The text relies heavily on Jim Corsi's extensive knowledge of both the North American and European approaches to goaltending at the professional level, and what those approaches can teach players from the bottom levels (mites, novices, pee-wees and bantams) to the top (juniors, high school). At the center of Corsi's technique is his belief that goalies have to learn all the techniques in what he calls the goalie's toolbox. By learning all the techniques, a goalie doesn't have to limit him or herself to a particular style of making saves or skating. The topics include: The art of goaltending, goaltender preparation and performance, game situations, resources, coaching, evaluation, drills, and a special chapter for parents. Most goaltending books are a few years old and have a much narrower focus. The Hockey Goalie's Handbook covers countless changes in techniques, equipment, training, and coaching in the past few years that have not been documented, making it the authoritative book for new players, coaches, and observers. Interest in ice hockey and in-line hockey has exploded across the U.S. over the last ten years - more pro teams, more junior leagues, more hockey schools and clinics.
