1. It’d help to shoot wherever I’m not. The puck has a tendency to stop if it hits me.
2. Surprisingly no, if the puck is tipped in that’s not on me, that’s on my defenseman. The most annoying way to get scored on is some Datsyukian magician coming down the ice and undressing you in front of a home crowd. That’s the stuff that makes you want to turn the net around and call it quits.
3. I can’t say I enjoy the stress of a shootout, but it’s a part of the game. It’s exciting to watch, exciting to be a part of, and it usually goes by faster than sudden death OT.
4. Have you seen these pads? The forwards should be afraid of me. If someone’s got the balls to take a run at me behind the net I’ll make sure they don’t get to finish the season.
5. It’s situational, if the defenders trying to do his job and gets tied up what can you do but if I’m screaming at him that I’m screened and he just sits there that’s when I consider pulling his feet out from under him so I can stop the point shot he’s screening me on.
