Episode 293 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features a fantastic, information packed interview with pro goalie and coach Connor LaCouvee.
In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, LaCouvee returns three years after his InGoal debut to catch us up on life as a pro in Slovakia, as well as his ongoing transition to doing more goalie coaching, and how the two complement each other. From discussions on Goalie IQ and how to develop it, understanding the difference between how a player sees us as goalies and how we see ourselves, how to bets use a journal to guide your own improvement, what "edge work" really means, and how coaching can help young goalies get better, this thing is loaded.

In the Parent Segment, presented by Stop It Goaltending U the App, we talk about "how much is too much" when it comes to spring and summer plans for your young goalie, what factors should go into those decisions, and why "my goalie want to do it" isn't always a good reason to let them.
We also review this week's Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, which features a quick return of Cam Talbot, who has talked about his use of Vizual Edge, and a look at some of the important factors in skate-or-slide decisions on rush chances with lateral pass options.
And in our weekly gear segment, we go to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports to look at Warrior's new suspenders, which include enough features to have non-suspender wearing Woody intrigued.
