There is a different level of talking depending on who is in net for each contest, but the message is usually the same.
“It depends on who is playing,” said Marc-Edouard Vlasic. “They both (Evgeni Nabokov and Brian Boucher) talk. Both will let you know if you have time. There is more talking if you’re playing five-on-five.”
Without the verbal assistance from Nabokov or Boucher, it can be tough to tell who is charging up ice from the other team.
“If someone is on me, the goalie talking makes my job easier,” said Vlasic.
“If the puck is going around the net, we’re not sure if a guy is coming from the other side,” said Boyle. “He keeps us from getting run over and getting injured.”
