I recently had the chance to take some snapshots of former Niagara Ice Dogs and Canadian Junior Team Goalie, Mark Visentin. Currently playing for Phoenix's farm team during the NHL lockout, he keeps fit by incorporating yoga sessions into his training routine. Aside from being pretty casual and down-to-earth, he's also extremely flexible, which produced some unique photos.

Back in my youth netminding days I stretched a little to warm up, but it reminded me of how serious athletics have become. I wonder if the old greats like Johnny Bower and Terry Sawchuk even stretched at all. Given that they didn't wear masks, it would seem like flexibility was probably a low priority.
