“The perfect model of a goaltender is someone with self-awareness”
There are excellent effective goalies that are tall and thin, short and stalky, extroverted, introverted, quirky, or normal. Great goalies come from any town, any city, any country any continent. They come from parents who played professsionally or never held a stick in their life.
