Goalies skipping the AHL is rare. Skipping the AHL and going straight from NCAA to the NHL is essentially unheard of. Even Ryan Miller, Hobey Baker finalist, did time in the AHL. I'm starting to believe Levi is going to do something unprecedented.

Knight takes Stacey into Frankel, that should be a goal as you can’t push players into your goalie. You negate everything by pushing a player into your goalie. Boston gets rewarded for it though 🤷‍♂️

I’m glad someone has said this as it used to be true. Due to to evolutions in the game & equip players should NEVER give their own stick to the goalie. You’re more useful in using it to shut down passing than your goalie will be. Goalies tell your players to keep their stick

Best case scenario is there's an age limit on prospects & even someone like Erin Ambrose isn't considered a prospect. Worst case scenario for 5/6 PWHL teams is they're underrating the PHF talent & some smart team is going to end up with Gabel/Giguere/Howard/Marchment.

Respect to Mikko Koskinen. Anyone who has ever played goalie knows (to a degree) what he's going through. Nothing is working, you feel hopeless but you just do literally anything to make saves. It's not pretty, it may not work, but you're trying.

In women's hockey goalies that aren't a consistent no. 1 goalie on their National Team rarely get the recognition their playing career deserves. Prime example of this is Sami Jo Small. I don't want that to happen anymore so I wrote this piece on recently retired Geneviève Lacasse

Having watched the vast majority of PWHL games...yeah finding time/space has been extremely difficult for everyone not named Natalie Spooner. Going to be interesting to see what teams prioritize in the draft, re-signing and signing free agents.

when i was at the T6 ring ceremony back in february i chatted with a few players who were in the first few weeks of their pwhl season the main takeaway i got from most of them was how hard the league was. every night was different. finding space wasnt like it was in the phf

Shutout for #Sens prospect Leevi Meriläinen. I know Sens fans are excited over Mads Søgaard but they should have excitement over Meriläinen as well. Reminds me of a raw Georgiev with a bigger frame. Just a very agile/quick goalie.

If there’s one lesson to take from this season is to have a player who is right at home in the Championship Arena. The Six has inside information that the game would be at The Mullet so they got someone with a mullet.

Final #U18WomensWorlds thoughts 🧵: SWE should be so proud of themselves. They proved themselves to be a top 3 team this tournament despite the Gold Medal score. Bad games happen & they had one at the worst possible time, learning experience.

People say it a lot but I'll say it again, Ottawa is the vibes team. If they make the playoffs & make it to the Final the fanbase is going to go wild. Lexie Adzija is leading her team in goals & still finds time to give time to the community. That's how you grow the game.

I know people will look at the shots and think 19 shots isn’t a whole lot. NY were consistently getting B Grade Chances & the game could have changed if Campbell wasn’t sharp on just consistently good chances. TOR won the shot battle but I think the scoring chance battle was even

@nicktheiihffan Here's a fun stat, in the history of Canadian Olympic Ice Hockey (men's & women's) there's only been one goalie to be the starter for 3 tournaments: @ShannonSzabados . In fact this Olympics will be the first since 2002 that we won't see one of @schellingf , @NooraRaty41 & Szabados

Very happy to confirm I'll be working with/for The Ice Garden. TIG will be the new home of the women's hockey written content that I do so if that's what you like go check out the recent piece I did on Geneviève Lacasse's playing career. Can't wait to see where this all leads.

Feels like it's some sort of record for Schroeder to start her PHF career with a shutout and her PWHL career with a shutout. The Canadian goalie talent pool in WHKY is very good.

THIS is what goes viral? Not literally the 99% of stuff that actually gets time & effort put into it, but the tweet made after I was up with my daughter till 4am & then I had to wake at 7am for a total of 3 hours of sleep. Having stats is a shitty superpower…

PWHL shooting % is 8%. That’s really low. The NHL shooting % is ~13% as a comparison.

Put Kendall Coyne in the All-Star game @NHL ! Give her the chance to win part of the 1M prize and MVP honours. Team Central needs a player and she’s right there. Also if Crosby is out replace him with Rebecca Johnston.

The pool of available goalies for the PWHL is rather big but how big we talking here? How many goalies are there available that you can rely on in a no. 1 role, tandem role, no. 2 role, etc? I hopefully answer those questions in this PWHL goalie overview:

The difference has been the USA has been cashing in on rebounds better than Canada. The US doesn’t care about giving up shots, they care about limiting lateral movement & being the 1st to rebounds.

Going to be interesting watching these two teams approach two similar goalies in Maschmeyer & Frankel. Both are very agile, aggressive, mobile goalies who do well really mitigating their size disadvantage. #RivalrySeries

Small correction: NHL SH% is ~10%, I mathed that wrong. NHL isn’t back at 80’s level yet but it’s slowly trending there.
