Before each game, I try to get one of my players to shoot on me. I usually do this during lunch if I have no game afterschool. I use no pads. Only stick and gloves with light shots.
Throughout the day, I think of the comming game. I focus on different angle shots, different speeds and how the save should be. It sounds wierd but it helps me in the game.
On the ride to the game, I listen to my PM3 player. Once I get there, I get ready before everyone and get out onto the field. I go to my crease and just stare out for a min. or two. I just think about the comming game and get focused. Just before the face off, I say a prayer and wait for it to begin.
