InGoal Radio: ep 291 with Calgary Flames AHL and Goalie Development Coach Mackenzie Skapski

Episode Description
Episode 291 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented byThe Hockey Shop Source for Sports,features the return of Calgary Flames AHL and goalie development coach Mackenzie Skapski.In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, Skapski shares insights from his first two and a half seasons with the Flames, which followed a five-year pro career that included playing two games (with a .978 save percentage) for the New York Rangers, some of the scoring trends he's seeing at the highest levels and how the Flames goalie department has worked guys like Dustin Wolf and Devin Cooley to adapt their tactics to those evolving attacks. It's a fascinating discussion that gets into everything from the special working relationship with Calgary director of goaltending Jordan Sigalet and Flames goalie coach Jason LaBarbera, to finer details of depth management and the need to start thinking of it in east-west terms as well as north-south.In the Parent Segment, presented by Stop It Goaltending U the App, we talk goalie masks, the importance of a good fit, and how those options have changed dramatically in the past decade.We also review this week's Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, which features Charlie Lindgren walking us through a power play and why important "scanning" habits should start at an early age.And in our weekly gear segment, we go to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports for a look at the CCM AXIS F9 Mask, which includes impact-absorbing D3O smart foam in a second price point option.
