A. True. If the goalie makes a save and the puck deflects off him, it's generally advantageous for the puck to land in front of the goal, as it allows the goalie to maintain better control and visibility of the play. If it lands behind or to the side, it could create a scoring opportunity for the opposing team.
If the goalie makes a save and the puck deflects off him, it is generally advantageous for it to land in front of the goal rather than behind or off to the sides. This positioning allows the goalie to quickly react to any potential rebounds and helps defenders to clear the puck away from danger. A puck that lands in front can create scoring opportunities for the opposing team if not managed properly, so goalies aim to control the rebound effectively.

There are 4 "jobs" a soccer player can have. They can be the goalie who is guarding the net at the end of the field, they can be a defender who are positioned in front of the goalie's box, a midfielder who is positioned in front of the defense, or a forward/attacker who is positioned in front of the midfielders. The 2 most popular ways to place a soccer team are 4 defence, 4 midfield, 2 forwards AND 4 defence, 3 midfield, 3 forwards (there is also the goalie, which there can only be 1 of).
Yes. In the sport of ice hockey there's a goalie crease. It's a small area just in front of the net, which allows the goaltender to move and/or handle the puck without interference.
If you are referring to the plastic part that fits on top of the front of the hood, it is a wind and bug deflector. Don't know if it's called a wind jam, tho.
The name you're looking for is probably "Goalie." You know, the person who stands in front of the net trying to block shots like a boss. So next time you're watching a game, just yell "Go, Goalie, go!" and you'll sound like a true hockey expert.
