Must Read for Goalie Fans!
I've been a fan more and more of goaltenders and wondered how they handle the stresses of their position. This book answered that question and many more as it really showed the mind and people who are behind that mask.

This review is from: Guardians: The Secret Life of Goalies (Paperback)
I've been a fan more and more of goaltenders and wondered how they handle the stresses of their position. This book answered that question and many more as it really showed the mind and people who are behind that mask. Interesting superstitions, ritual, and some things that surprised me, are all in this book. If you love goaltenders or are fascinated by them in any way and want to know that they truly do opperate differently then the rest of the team, this is the book for you.

This review is from: Guardians: The Secret Life of Goalies (Paperback)
