IM BACK AT HOME IN THE NET (MIC’ED UP)

Written By Phil Hovey

Day 5 saw me ready to begin reviewing crease mechanics. I love the way my skating changes when a goal net appears.

Its another safety icon for me. After spending countless hundreds of hours in front and around hockey goals, there’s something confidence building about doing skating drills in the crease with a net.

I really am beginning to see my old mechanics and old skate work coming through here. This day was the first one where I felt my skates move in familiar net adjacent patterns making familiar crease crunching sounds.
