Ingoal Radio: Devan Dubnyk And Lyle Mast: The Science Of Head Trajectory (ep 369)

Summary

Episode 369 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features a deep dive on head trajectory with ex-NHL goalie Devan Dubnyk and coach Lyle Mast.In the feature interview, presented by NHL Sense Arena, Mast breaks down the science behind head trajectory, including how the way we move our head affects balance through vestibular function, why it's not as simple as "watch the puck," and how it affects movements and save preparation as much as tracking a puck once it's been shot. Dubnyk rides shotgun, explaining how all those elements translated for him when he was playing in the NHL and now that he's coaching younger goalies, as well as why it was sometimes hard for him to hold onto good tracking during a season, and how Mast's new Trac Optics goggles solve that problem by providing instant feedback that lets you know if you're on or off the puck.In the Parent Playbook, presented by Stop It Goaltending U the App, Hutch moves last week's talk about the importance of building good habits and routines up to game time.We also review the latest Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, featuring the debut of New York Rangers goalie Dylan Garand with a fantastic breakdown of a low-high pass across the slot line, and how the foundations of his game allow him to be ready when the unexpected happens.And in our weekly gear segment we look at the latest iteration of Bauer's GSX pants and chest protector, a lower price point option that's also great for ball hockey.
