Bertagna Goaltending Series: The Advanced Goaltender (Video) (VHS)

This video features Joe Bertagna, Director of the Bertagna Goaltending School, Commissioner of Hockey East, Executive Director of the American Hockey Coaches Association, and former Boston Bruins (NHL) and `94 U.S. Olympic Team goaltending coach. Through his vast experience, Bertagna has observed that young goal tenders play the position by reacting, intermediate goal tenders anticipate, then react, and the advanced goal tender has developed the ability of influencing play through the development of an established method. The Advanced Goal tender takes you through a methodical process of helping you, the coach, become the catalyst for taking your goal tender beyond reacting to learn and establish a method. Bertagna takes you through game-like situational variations of: odd-man coming into the zone, plays down low, puck behind the net, leaving the net and handling the puck, and breakaways. In each demonstrated situation, Bertagna details what the goalie should see and how the goalie should react and shares the components of how to develop these situations into a method. Bertagna delivers the essence of developing today's goal tender through knowledge, anticipation, decision-making, execution, and having a method! 27 minutes. 2002.
