Episode 180 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports (https://www.thehockeyshop.com/collections/goalie-hockey-equipment) , features new Washington Capitals goalie Charlie Lindgren.
In the feature interview, presented by Sense Arena (https://www.sensearena.com/for-goalies) , Lindgren shares his experiences as sought-after free agent on the goalie carousel and how it differed from last season, as well as the changes he made to his game during his one year with the St. Louis Blues that led to that increased demand. He talks about how evolving his approach to rush chances and narrowing his stance as part of that change fuelled improvements in other areas of his game that led to a .958 save percentage in five games with the Blues and long playoff run to the Calder Cup Final in Springfield.
Lindgren also shares tips on how to quickly fit in with a new team that goalies of every age headed into a new locker room can apply this fall, and gets in depth on the revolutionary new Bauer KONEKT skates, which he wore all season as one of the first professionals to switch. That ties in perfectly with our weekly plus a trip to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports for a look at those KONEKT skates, how they achieve a custom fit in store, who they are for and why they could change the game.
