Try to focus on Y-theory- the idea that you will come out of the crease as far as possible, and then retreat as they come close and driving towards just past the post when you hit the top of the crease and have forced them to make a move. Your pattern would look like a reverse Y. Here is what (current Caps) well-known goalie coach Mitch Korn says about playing breakaways. http://www.mitchkorn.com/breakaway.html Y-theory If you are getting beat on multiple moves on the same play, you are probably backing up too quickly. They shouldn't really have enough space to make more than one deke once you start to move. The biggest thing is getting out of the crease so that you can match their speed backing up and will have enough momentum to create a strong push. Some NHL tendies, including MAF, have started using a hybrid, almost VH, stance on shootouts where the player doesn't come right down the middle. He will start normally, but as he backs up he will drop the inside knee lower to take away a 5 hole shot and get one pad closer to the ice. I almost forces shooters to the far side and he explodes of the upright leg to that side. If they go to the short side, he has to go a shorter distance so he is able to use the down leg to push. I can't find a pic of it, but maybe if you look at enough videos you can see it. He is just screwing around in this video, so it's not his real movement, but if you watch the first few saves, you can see him drop his knee, then push.
