Jon Elkin's Goalie Schools has been a leader in foreseeing new trends and implementing effective techniques to counter the changes in the game. For the last 15 years forwards have been forced to adapt their games as a result of facing butterfly goalies. This reality combined with new rules that have exponentially opened up the game and reduced the size of goalie equipment means new challenges lie ahead.
Now goaltenders have to be technically even sounder, more patient, improve their reads, be quicker on their feet, better at controlling rebounds, be in better shape, be more proficient at playing the puck and more athletic than ever.
