Episode 322 features a tribute to Bernie Parent

Episode 322 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features a tribute to Bernie Parent after the goaltending legend passed away at age 80.

In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, we re-play our memorable conversation with the Philadelphia Flyers Icon and Hall of Fame goalie from almost five years ago. Named one of the 100 greatest players of all time, Parent led the Flyers to two Stanley Cups in 1973-74 and 1974-75, winning both the Conn Smythe and Vezina Trophies each time, but it was his warmth and generosity that endeared him to Philadelphia long after he retire because of an eye injury. 

Both come through, along with his great sense of humor and storytelling, as he talks about everything from his introduction to the game growing up in Montreal, his mentorship under childhood hero Jacques Plante, and his memorable appearance in the 2012 Winter Classic Alumni Game.

The interview includes this week's Parent Segment, appropriately presented by Stop It Goaltending U the App, we talk about why it is important -- and how hard it can be -- to let our kids fail sometimes. 

We also review this week's Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, with Eric Comrie of the Winnipeg Jets breaking down depth triggers on an open look in the high slot, as well as the Jets cues to check if the goalies are tracking the puck well. 

In our weekly gear segment, we go to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports for a closer look at the Warrior G7 youth line, with lightweight options to help your young goalie move well and stay protected.
