Maskin takana: Pasi Nurminen

Kirjoitti: Samuli Laukka. Ajassa: 10.52. Aihe: jääkiekko.

Toinen Atlanta Thrashersin loistavista suomalaisvahdeista, Pasi Nurminen, on Robert Picarellon jutun aiheena NHL.comissa: Behind the Mask — Nurminen uses his noggin.

Vielä Nurminen ei ole täydellinen.

”Experience is the No. 1 reason Pasi is playing as well as he is this year,” said Atlanta assistant coach Steve Weeks, himself a former NHL goalie. ”I think he’s realizing it’s a process of letting the puck come to him. He’s a very energetic goaltender and sometimes he may overplay the shot and put himself out of position by being so aggressive. So we’re trying to work with him on his positioning in the crease and having him hold to that. And with experience he’s realizing that by doing that that the puck will find him. He doesn’t have to go to it or overplay it. I think he’s realizing that sometimes less is more.”
