## Resource

In Episode 128, Jamie and Derek go deep on the tension between performance and results—especially early in the season. What should a goalie do when they’re playing well but not getting wins? Or not getting starts? The guys lay out actionable advice for goalies, parents, and coaches navigating the politics and mental toll of competitive hockey. They tackle adversity, roster depth, open borders in AAA, goalie rotation, and why it’s not a coach’s fault if your kid isn’t playing—if you chose this level. Plus: the war on stat counters, Charlotte Payne vs. Liv Fulkins, building depth in your goalie program, and why junior hockey websites might be the worst coded places on Earth.
