Episode 106 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports (https://www.thehockeyshop.com/pages/goal) , features Troy Grosenick talking training camp with the Los Angeles Kings and life on the waiver wire, including at-times scary adventures driving from LA to Edmonton and back over the past month.
In that feature interview, presented by Sense Arena (https://www.sensearena.com/for-goalies) , Grosenick shares examples of the things he learned from Jonathan Quick, Cal Petersen and Bill Ranford with the Kings — toe-up glove save, anyone? — and shares some of the fascinating collaborative back-and-forth that go into adding new technical elements after nine years as a pro. He shares some great lessons about always being open to adding new tools to your goaltending toolbox, but the importance of not abandoning your foundation in that process, and we have a long talk about the continued pace for traditional VH in today’s game, and how he’s noticed some big NHL names using it more often this season.
All that, plus another trip to The Hockey Shop with Cam and a special behind-the-scenes look at Braden Holtby’s unique pad set up that still includes a toe bridge. The Holtby set from CCM is one of several that will be available to buy at The Hockey Shop’s annual Demo Sale, which starts Friday, Feb. 12, and you can check out the video simulcast of the Gear Segment for better visuals of Holtby’s unique set up and set of Frederik Andersen Bauer pads that includes a custom “Professor Strap” and is also on sale.
