It's all in hindsight now, but letting in 8 in your debut, then going on your vlog saying hockey doesn't define you, regardless of how you meant it, pretty much sealed your fate in terms of getting cut. I wish you well trav in your future endeavors and hope you use this vlog to boost you in whatever you decide to do next.

A lot of self help/positive affirmation books being quoted by Trav, a positive outlook is totally fine but also don’t pretend that the past (ie. not cracking a lineup) didn’t happen and that your comments of being a “Pro Goalie” would still be applicable. Trav wanted to be better than he actually was, which is fine and he did play at a higher level which is to be applauded but unfortunately there is just too much competition and he didn’t beat out his peers for the crease

Well on the plus side you now have time to take the women up on their offer and can prove to them that you would dominate their league as you claim. No more excuse of not taking up their challenge cause you've got scheduling conflicts.

The team/defense was downright pathetic, but I was pretty shocked how poor your side to side movements looked. So slow to react & get over.

Hang in there, Trav. Well said at the end. I went as far as I could as a goaltender as well (Jr. A / college), and now work for an IT company making a good living. However, I still draw on the experiences I learned playing hockey. None of this time is "wasted"!

I love seeing you develope as a person. Your mindset has changed which for your goaltending is bad but further on in life is good. To be competitive, you need to play like each game is your last. Your own words shows there is no more fight in that dog (again looking passed hockey is a good mindset but teams aren't looking for perseverance, they are always looking at what can you do for me now). Honestly, if you can get a job with one of the Fed teams as their media and commentator, you will go far and possibly up (is there money in that, i have no idea) That's what my take away is, you've been vlogging so much trying to showcase your goaltending but really your editting has really shown through and you should be proud of that. Whether this is thebplace you wanted to be or not, you are here, be thebwst you ca be in the time you can act (aka always think present). Always pulling for you.

Trav had some struggles this game but any team giving up 60 plus shots needs a bag skate the next practice. That defence was painful to watch.

Long time brother. You didn't just get peppered, someone loosened the top of the shaker. Good thing for your team you showed up for both of those games... oh, that was one game with more than 60 shots against? Still, maybe next time your team will actually get off the bus to play. You stopped 49. It isn't about the shot that got by you, it's all about the shots that you stop after that. You held the line buddy. Only way from there is up. You looked awesome. Made most of those saves look easy because you were tracking and stayed in position against the shot. The majority of the ones (if not all) that went in were not something you or most other goalies had a chance at when it was virtually 5 on 0 since your D wasn't doing their job at all.

To be honest, he is the one letting his team down. He always has terrible stats and not every single game is on the defense.

Nice video. Well, two suggestions, one is that you get with a different trainer (or just do it on your own) to work on building up your leg strength. If your best barbell squat is 150 lbs (as an example), you want to get to 200 lbs (as an example)., what is the best rep/set combination and weekly leg days will get you to that goal? And if 200 lbs is your actual best squat, then what would it take to get to 250 lbs. 50 pounds increase is an example. Whatever small short term goals would be good to improve your leg strength and quickness. And two, work on your daily stretching to widen your butterfly.

Did he get pulled and sent back or what happend?

Trav sucks letting in eight pucks but don't give up it's a new day tomorrow and you are talented in making videos and maybe you should get into broadcasting

Sorry for you trav. I get there was no defence, but thats why save percentage is a thing. If you had stopped one or 2 more, even tho it still would be a blow out, they probably wouldn’t have cut you

Remember watching this game no idea how the score sheet did not show you shots and ice time right.

Does the fphl have tryouts?

A positive mind-set is so important. They say that the most important space out on the ice is the 5" between your ears. You're working that space really well, Trav. A question: Are hockey players mostly salad-dodgers? Just checking. Keep up the good work. Peace out!
