Hybrid half buteerfly all the way and smaller pads

[William alestam]

you should put your arms down, its should be relaxed and upp with your body.

[SuperHockeygoalie]

If you cant close up your legs either your pads are to small or you need to stretch your legs to achieve it. Also this butterfly isnt accurate.his gloves are up to high he should be pushing them down and forwards.

I'm a butterfly goalie, and I played in a ball hockey league, and I won the championship and had a GAA of 1.40 in the regular season (15 games) and 2.50 GAA in the post season (4 games). Adding up to 21 GA in RS and 10 GA in PS. Making 31 GA in 19 games for a GAA of 1.63. Don't say I'm trying to get attention I'm just saying I'm a good butterfly goalie and that butterfly goalies are good.

the pads are way too small

[Isaac Menchaca]

U dont close up ur legs, you just use ur stick to cover the space or "five hole" inbetween your legs
