tsk tsk, theres another russian goaltender in florida who i would put above vasi
Great analysis! This is a similar strategy I tend to use when I play NHL. This is the exact opposite of what georgiev does lol. Recently found your channel and I always find myself watching.
I know nothing about hockey but this guy's hypnotic voice just drew me in. Anyone else?
3:55 look at that butterfly flare man. That’s crazy hip and knee flexibility
I just discovered your channel days ago and I crave that kind of knowledge. Continue your great work !
I would really love to see you doing an analysis of Carey Price, despite the fact that he’s not playing at the moment
Jimmy, you know I love some neuroscience with my goaltending analysis videos. Great stuff.
Awesome analysis. Watched your video on Georgiev too. Key theme in both is, set your feet regardless of depth, and trust your hands. You’ve talked about how Vasy and Helly do this well while Georgie doesn’t. One thing that’s critical to point out though is Vasy is 6”4, 230. Helly 6”4 205. Georgie 6”1 180. So it’s easier for Vasy and Helly to set and trust their hands even if they don’t have the depth they want, while Georgie feels like he need to gain depth – because Vasy and Helly are BIG.
I’d love to see you analyze Juuse Saros for this reason. He is so technical for how small he is.
Excited to see who the other top two are 👀
As a self taught goalie of two years these are EXACTLY the type of videos I am looking for. Thank you for the uploads, the information here is incredible!
Important note that was glossed over in the video, but Vasy and I have the same type of pet cats (Siberians). Hypoallergenic, and always use the active hands. But my cats are a bit too reliant on the RVH in my personal opinion.
Happy birthday to the BIG CAT ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Lmao at the sandlot scene. That’s cold haha
lmfao, andrei isnt even close to being the best in the world
