What does it really take to win at the highest level… over and over again?

In this episode of The Goalie Mindset Podcast, Pete Fry sits down with Grant Fuhr. Five-time Stanley Cup champion. Hockey Hall of Famer. One of the most clutch goalies to ever play the game.

Instead of just talking about his career, this conversation goes deeper into how he actually performed under pressure.

Grant shares what went through his mind before games, how he prepared, and what allowed him to stay calm in the biggest moments. One of the biggest takeaways is simple but powerful. You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be good, and make the save when it matters.

They get into:

• What his game day routine actually looked like
• How he prepared mentally without overthinking
• Why he focused on being “good” instead of chasing perfection
• How he stayed calm after giving up a goal
• What confidence really means for a goalie
• Why body language affects your whole team
• How to handle pressure, especially in big games

Grant also talks about one of the toughest moments in his career and how he bounced back from it. His approach is straightforward. Feel it, learn from it, then let it go and move on.

There’s a lot in here that young goalies can take and use right away. Nothing complicated. Just real habits and ways of thinking that actually work.

🎧 If you’re a goalie who wants to stay calm, build confidence, and play your best when it matters, this is one you’ll want to listen to.

What happens when a goalie realizes the biggest opponent isn’t the shooter… but their own mind?

In this episode of The Goalie Mindset Podcast, Pete Fry sits down with former OHL goaltender Joe Ranger. Joe shares his journey from battling adversity in minor hockey to playing junior and college hockey, and how learning the mental side of the game changed everything for him.

He talks about growing up on a smaller team in the Ottawa Valley, going through early struggles in the OHL, and a moment where his confidence almost disappeared after a tough loss. Instead of letting that define him, he found a way to build himself back up and become stronger mentally.

Now a Certified Goalie Mindset Coach, Joe is helping young goalies develop the same tools he wishes he had earlier in his career.

In this conversation, Pete and Joe get into:

• The difference between the Athlete Mindset and Fan Mindset
• How overthinking can quietly hurt your performance
• What it’s really like mentally to play a 68-game junior season
• Why playing on a weaker team can actually help you grow
• Why confidence, focus, and managing your mental energy matter so much
• How mindset training carries over into life off the ice

Joe also shares something a lot of goalies go through but don’t always say out loud. There were times he felt like quitting. What helped him push through was learning to zoom out and see the bigger picture. One bad game or rough stretch doesn’t define you. What matters is how you grow from it.

This episode is real. No fluff. Just honest experiences, tough moments, and lessons that can help both goalies and parents navigate the ups and downs.

🎧 If you want to build real confidence and start playing with a clearer mind, this one’s worth a listen.

What separates “good” from legendary in the crease?

In this episode of The Goalie Mindset Podcast, Pete Fry sits down with Ian Clark—world-renowned goalie coach and Head of Goalie Development for the Vancouver Canucks—for a masterclass on what the best goalies actually do when nobody’s watching… and what they repeat when the pressure is highest.

Ian breaks down the real difference-makers behind elite performance:

• Why your eyes are your #1 anatomical advantage—and how to train them on every single shot
• The elite habit Roberto Luongo did 100% of the time (even in practice) that builds unstoppable control
• The “do less, see more” awareness that made Henrik Lundqvist surgical
• Carey Price’s calm “quick starts, quick stops” and how anticipation is earned (not guessed)
• Bobrovsky’s legendary work ethic—and the growth mindset that believes there’s no top to the skyscraper
• Why the best goalies still make standing saves… and what that reveals about patience

Then Ian reveals what’s next: his new app From The Crease (FTC)—built to help goalies and coaches take skills from concept → practice → game emergence, with modules, drills, video demos, analytics, and coach-goalie connection tools.

If you’re serious about building a dominating goalie career, this episode is a blueprint.
