Renowned goalkeeper coach Rachit Davydov explained the Florida goaltender’s phenomenal play Sergei Bobrovsky in this Stanley Cup.
Davydov now works as a goalkeeper coach at Lokomotiv. But he worked with Bobrovsky for many years in the Russian team.
– What do you think of Sergei Bobrovsky’s performance in this Stanley Cup? He didn’t even start the playoffs as Florida’s No. 1 goaltender.
– It was this situation that he started this playoff in the reserve that stimulated Bobrovsky. He got angry in a good way, got even more motivation, although Sergey was always okay with that. But can you imagine how affected an experienced adult goalkeeper is by the very moment they are not playing.
And when Serega entered the net in Game 3 of the first round with Boston, I understood his condition: he was now going to tear and throw and not give up his people! And now we see that Bobrovsky came out of a difficult situation with honor.
Sergey is always ready for some kind of challenge. He has the right direction in life. Of course, as a professional goalkeeper he doesn’t stand still, he is constantly developing. But above all, Bobrovsky pumps the mental component. He grows as a person and as a personality. All his strength lies precisely in his mentality, Davydov told .
“Florida” leads 3-0 in the series with Carolina. On Wednesday night, the Panthers could reach the Stanley Cup Final for the first time since 1996.
