In the event that you need to record your computer screen in the future, something like OBS Studio might be helpful! Great video as always. Something I'll have to try next time I can get some stick and puck time with a rebounder.
As a goalie, please don’t listen to this advice. Obviously you need to have the puck exactly perfect on your stick so it is comfortable before shooting and that takes handling. Repeat: do not do this! Because I dislike all of my teammates and want them to be worse, I tell them to work on catch and release as described in the video, as a troll because I hate winning games.
@@chrisk8027 As a goalie, licensed goalie coach, and ex-pro player who along with working with kids also works with pros and national team players, I will let the viewers decide who to believe: myself or a troll.
@@ibanz65 You are absolutely right. I am going to have to do some serious soul searching now and will ask the kids teams that I coach if they would like me to step down.
@@davidcbeaudoin thanks a lot! A part of it is „soft hands“ but also make sure your stick is always in a good position to receive the pass (both hands free from the body, and the blade angled 90 degrees towards the puck).
I am new to watching hockey but I like learning about “background” things and your videos help with that. Thanks! Anyway, this video about the extra stick handling has stuck with me and I notice it now when I watch games. Most recently I saw it Tanev’s empty net goal in the final seconds of the Kraken v Hawks game from last night (Nov 14). At least from my novice perspective it looked to me like it. Maybe not. (Let’s go Kraken!)
@@TerribleLotus Glad you like the video! Watching NHL games is a great place to learn. Last years playoffs I saw a bunch of goals scored off of cross passes where if the player had stickhandled the goalie would have had time to get set. That was one of the things that motivated me to do this video.
Great advice, I have been guilty of this on more than one occasion. I have been doing much better, I appreciate your advice. Also where in Germany was this video done, I was in Stuttgart for just over 4 years before returning to the US. Once again great video.
As a goalie I say this is only halfway true. I often play with players who can immediately shoot off the pass. I plan my timing for me to arrive whether it’s a T push or knee slide precisely for a quick release. When I play with subpar players who catch the puck, stick handle and shoot, often I’m sliding past them, the timing is off and they score and they think they’re studs but in reality they scored because they suck and threw off my quicker game. Ultimately it’s me and I can’t adapt but my GAA go up with better players who shoot quick clean and precise.
I understand what you mean. I've found that working on a lot of sliding back into a standing position or sliding into a backside push really helped me. Now I don't overslide and the shooters who take too long have big problems.
The trick with the jump shot catch the release is to actually time the jump just before you catch the puck. Also, I'm fine with the quick release and all but this can have negative outcomes that create a bad technique for shooting and a habit that will not maximize shot speed. It may be quick but if the shot speed is slow still won't work.
@@alexpayne1364 why can’t a quick release and good shooting technique go hand in hand? Wouldn’t the speed of the release also be a part of having good technique? How would not Stickhandling before a shot negatively affect technique?
@@MarcelsHockeySchool For example. If the skater's technique is weak and doesn't produce power then you tell that player to work on this quick-release technique without him actually knowing how to generate power in a corkscrew or an off-leg shot this may create quick release but it won't generate power cause of the players lack of shooting technique. Repetition of this will create a bad habit. In my opinion, I would teach them how to increase their shot speed as much as possible before teaching the quick-release style.
@@alexpayne1364 A quick release isn’t a technique for me in itself, it’s simply part of having an overall good shot. I understand and agree with you that it’s not good to rush shots if the technique still isn’t very good, but like I said while doing the first drill (pucks in a pile standing still), you can take your time at first, but you do not need to stickhandle, which is simply a bad habit that has no effect on technique. So I can maximize my shot speed, focus on my technique, and my release will still automatically be quicker because I’m not stickhandling. I want the players to avoid the stickhandle: I’ve been playing goal since I retired from pro hockey and a shot without the stickhandle is so much harder to read and react to than a shot with a stickhandle before.
“I’m such a sniper!” 😂😂 I know a few beer leaguers like this all too well. Great video! Keep ‘em coming please.
Very good point. It's automatic: you get the puck, you stickhandle. Like a tick almost.
@@joeschmo2693 yeah and you often don’t even notice it 🙈
GREAT video Marcel, just the type of videos I'm looking for!
@@Sicx thanks! Glad you liked it!

@@aaronwhite1786 thank you and thanks for the tip! Filming the screen was kind of a quick last resort because I wanted to get the video out😃
@@MarcelsHockeySchool Haha, definitely the easiest and quickest way. No new software to figure out!

@@MarcelsHockeySchool I think you missed the joke
@@jeffbouchard8747 that thought did cross my mind, but at the end of the day I didn’t think it was a joke. But I could be wrong 😃🤷♂️
@@MarcelsHockeySchool really missed the joke here. If you can't joke with kids I think they should look at your creds again.
@@ibanz65 You are absolutely right. I am going to have to do some serious soul searching now and will ask the kids teams that I coach if they would like me to step down.
Great stuff here. The one thing I wish I could do better is "soften" my hands. I often have hard passes hit my blade and not land clean.

I wish I had these videos as a kid or even just internet in general. Life would be soooo much easier.

Es ist nicht optimal.
very easy with hyperlite 2
@@macaronisalad11 Easy with any stick. I have an Vapor x.3 that also does it very well
