GOALTENDING:
REPETITION
Ryan Miller,
rookie goaltending sensation for the Buffalo Sabres,
attributes much of his success to 'muscle memory'
and 'instinct'. These are achieved through practice
ritual and repetition. By practicing a technique
over and over again, our body and mind learn to
react almost automatically to given situations. For
example, if you regularly practice your technique
for defending against a one-timer from in close to
the net, eventually you will react 'instinctively'
to the same situation every time it occurs during a
game. So, practice your skills continuously - you
will be rewarded for all your hard work!
