And this is exactly why I put emphasis on:
1) Being patient and make the shooter commit first
2) Hold edges/stay on feet instead of being caught in the butterfly early/too long
Sorry for the shaky cam but the were wrestling.

Very good save here by Grubauer to help the @coloradoavalanche get the W.
What is most impressive here is his awareness of Couture in the slot, staying up on his feet allowing himself to be quick to launch out to him, and not committing to the butterfly early, but instead setting his feet for the save.

Before you dig into this one, make sure to read up on the last post about “Reaction Time vs. Shot Speed” first. Otherwise, this will not make sense. Now, let’s continue and take a look at HIGH SHOTS from the yellow line - 0.09s left to make a save.
.
With the goalie setting up at the top of the crease, the yellow rectangle is the box they will need to protect. From the diagram, you can see that this is a 1.39m by 0.94m box, which is a 40% reduction in the area compared to the full net!
.
Next, we assume a “reasonable” glove or blocker movement speed of 5.7 m/s, or 12.7 mph (from tests). So with 0.09s and a speed of 5.7 m/s, you can move your glove or blocker a total distance of 0.50m.
.
So what does this tell us? 0.50m doesn’t look like much when compared to a 1.39m by 0.94m box. .
Well, let’s split the box into 4 parts, and let’s look at two green boxes in the second diagram for your glove and blocker side. Each one of these green boxes are now 0.70m by 0.47m, and because your shoulder will take up about half of that space, let’s assume that the remaining dimensions of the box are 0.35m by 0.47m. Therefore, the math tells us that as long as the starting position of your glove or blocker is inside that 0.35m by 0.47m box, your ability to move 0.50m in the 0.09s will give you enough time to cover the corners of the box to make the save on high shots.
.
There are other factors at play here that could affect the outcome (i.e. height of goalie, the difference in ability between blocker and glove, added weight of the paddle, your movement speed, situational plays, etc) but generally speaking, despite having only 0.09s to make the save, being well positioned reduces the difficulty of this save. Keep this in mind, let it assist you in your save selection, be smart about it, and make the save every time.
