Being a fat hockey goalie can affect your performance on the ice by potentially reducing your speed and agility, making it harder to move quickly and react to shots. Additionally, excess weight can impact your flexibility and overall endurance, which are important for making saves and staying strong throughout a game. It may also affect your ability to cover the net effectively and move laterally to block shots. Maintaining a healthy weight and fitness level is important for optimal performance as a goalie in hockey.

Hockey backs are the defenders. They aren't the goalie but they help defend on behalf of the goalie. If you are playing a weak team being a back can be quite boring but if you are challenging a strong team it can be quite an interesting game for you.
yes a goalie can reenter a game after being substituted for.
Montreal was bought out by Warrior, basically for their goalie sticks. Get your Montreal sticks while you can, because they are no longer being produced.
The goalie does have a right to "check" another player, but it can not be compared to what it is like in hockey. You must keep your arms down and you may not kick them, but as to the fact about being inside the box, you will lose your rights of aggression once you step outside the 18 yard line (box) and the ref can call the golie for cheaking a player if its not legel
The most obvious changes in the goalie equipment is that since around the 80's, hockey companies have been using synthetic materials. Pleather is now being used for catch gloves, blockers, and leg pads; Mesh and plastic are being used for chest protectors. There were also changes to the amount of padding in the gloves, chest protectors and blockers. Because of this, USA Hockey made certain regulations to the amount of padding allowed on each of these articles of equipment because "it takes away the spirit of hockey".Hope this helped
Yes, definitely. lots of ice hockey goalies wear two cups. A regular cup jock and then a special goalie cup over top of that. Usually the size and speed of the puck or ball being shot at the net determines wether a goalie would need to wear a goalie cup. Lacrosse and ice hockey goalies wear cups but soccer goalies generally dont wear a cup

no professional goalies are best being a goalie. They do not have much skill in dribbling or fakes.
Sunlight can affect the performance of a garage door sensor by causing interference or false readings due to the sensor being overwhelmed by the brightness of the sunlight.
It's called the crease. And like a pitcher's mound (just ask Oakland's Dallas Braden) it's the goalie's office. A player from an opposing team is technically not allowed to stand in the area or he is in danger of being penalized although, sometimes they get away with it. A player from your own team is not allowed to cover, freeze, or in any manner hold on to the puck in that area. The goalie can of course do any of those things.
Being graded on a curve means that your performance is compared to that of your classmates, and your grade is determined relative to how well others did. This can affect academic performance by potentially raising or lowering your grade based on how others in the class performed.
