It's hard to believe that another holiday season is upon us and whether you’re prepared or not, we have you covered with a list of the top 20 hockey goalie gifts of the 2021 holiday season from GoalieMonkey!

A goalie blocker is a critical piece of the goalie’s equipment setup, serving not only as a precious blocking surface, but also as a bridge between the goalie’s hand and stick. We’ve done the hard part and put together a list of the top 10 goalie blockers on the market, making the saves will be easy.

Undoubtedly, the goalie mask is the most recognizable piece of equipment for the position. It keeps the goalie safe, yet also provides a canvas of expression like you see on nearly every professional goalie. The mask is designed to protect both the head and much of the neck of the goalie, allowing them to feel confident and safe in facing even the most difficult of shots.

The goalie’s glove is an integral part of the position, one that has many different functions. Not only does it catch the puck, but it also serves as additional blocking surface, a way to “freeze” the puck from play, and serves as the goalie’s second stick hand when playing the puck. In this article we’ll get right down to it and cover 2021’s best goalie catch gloves.

So you want to be a goalie?  Have you always wondered what it would be like to don the coolest gear in hockey?  Or maybe you are the parent of an enthusiastic young hockey player who has taken a liking to stopping pucks.  In this article we will cover all the basics of hockey goalie equipment and considerations that should be taken when purchasing your first set of goalie gear.

The NHL started a little over a week ago now and there are some goalies who haven’t had the start they needed to be successful. To be fair, all of these goalies have only played two or three games so it’s way too soon to predict they will not turn their game around within the next week or month to get back on track for a good season.

Today we will take a “way too early” look at which goaltenders will be available if not resigned and protected by the 2021-22 NHL Expansion Draft. Some of the goalies on this list may be highly unlikely to move or be unprotected, but with the way their contracts are set up, there is a chance that one of these goalies may have the opportunity to play for Seattle if unsigned.

We had a very insightful interview with Spencer Freer, Product Manager for Bauer Goalie who gave us the inside scoop on all the upcoming products from Bauer this year!

For the last 10 years, GoalieMonkey has been proud to bring out Koho inspired gear for goaltenders that grew up with that brand. Now, the Koho lineage has morphed into CCM branded gear, however the root design and heritage is still continued.
