S2 Ep37: Inside NHL Goaltending — Technique, Trades & Playoff Strategy with Steve Valiquette

Goaltending analyst and former NHL netminder Steve Valiquette joins John Shannon and Daren Millard on 100% Hockey for a deep dive into the evolving art of NHL goaltending.

Valiquette breaks down modern goalie technique, discussing the importance of alignment, posture, and maintaining vision through traffic. He also explains why certain trends — including the overuse of the reverse VH technique — may be creating challenges for today’s goaltenders.

The conversation also explores:

  • Why flinching can be a critical mistake in save execution
  • How practice habits influence playoff performance
  • The difficulty of trading goaltenders at the NHL trade deadline
  • The value of having multiple capable goalies during a playoff run
  • Which teams may rely on tandem goaltending in the postseason


The panel also analyzes a recent collision involving Nathan MacKinnon and Connor Ingram, discussing officiating decisions and player safety.
A technical, insightful conversation about the position that often decides championships — and how teams are preparing their goaltenders for the NHL playoffs.
