- We show you a fool proof way to break in your glove. Goalies of all ages struggle to get that glove broken in properly so you don't have pucks popping our all over the place. NHL goalies quickly get their brand new gloves ready to go right out of the box using this technique. Steve also walks you through several ways NOT to break-in your goalie glove. A huge thank you to @goaliecrease.net for their input on this video.
We also get a quick peek at nice black Lamborghini Aventador ice we know Coach Steve loves the exotic cars!

I think this one may take off
You never know. it has the three things any good video has. The lambo, a pipe and a game used Belfour stick
After the Lambo intro, I had to watch the video four more times. I forgot to listen to what it said. Better make that five...ok...6.
It does get some attention
That glass breaking scared the crap outta me 😂
Shaun NH 2A the boss wasn’t impressed either
You're a magician bud, I just got my new glove yesterday, now here I am at 5 in the morning breaking it in lol
Try the tub
Thanks. This is how I did my sons glove. The guy in the goalie store told me I ruined the glove, that I should never put hot water in it because it ruins the "felt".
That is a myth… there is nothing in a glove that is ruined by water. It is all synthetic materials……… and they guy was working in a goalie store…..nuff said
Great video! Is there anything wrong with breaking a glove in simply by using it at pickup skates first? I personally enjoy the feeling of a new glove that's a little stiff at first
Trey Rees I thing wrong at all by throwing it right into rotation!
I wish i would have seen this sooner because i ran over my glove with my truck
Is the truck okay
Do you still have the video of what if hockey ended after high school. I liked that video. I thought it's a great way to keep parents grounded and enjoy the time watching there kids chasing there dreams
Yes. It is at the end of one of these other videos. It was just a segment, not its own video.
Nice Vid! Simple & direct.. I have also used this method, along with Tommy’s Vid.. Great job! ~~ Idea for another vid.. Stick & Paddle length & how to size it up for different size goalies & styles. Keep it up!
Goalie Reaper thanks Reaper! I had done this for years and saw Tommy’s very similar so didn’t want to step on his toes! (Great minds think alike) and the paddle shaft sizing issue is an important one as well with many myths around them. It will be on the list for sure. Thanks for watching.
I'd also like to see a vid on proper stick sizing.
It is on my list
Yes please !
Just came out today.....
The stick you use to hold it open ...some Finnish dude once told me to dry it facedown with a bit of weight on it (max 5 lbs). Worked well for me
Excellent.
Breaking in my son’s trapper now. Going to be butter smooth for him. Tendy life... passing it on to my hockey buddy and only son.
Shannon Hogan thanks for watching and if you ever need any help send me some clips of him playing
My catcher is under a chair now in the living room😂 My mom is gonna question me lmao
Wow, what a difference in my glove after doing this. Have a 3on3 tourney coming up on friday so I definitely needed to break it in more. Thank you so much!
Anytime!
@futureprogoaltending despite you wearing Leafs gear, very informative and entertaining content. It's really helping me understand how to help my 8yr old son & goalie. Thanks!
At least it isn’t the Canadiens stuff
@@FutureProGoaltending Booo, sir. Booo!
Awsome video.. loved the pipe, Nice elegant touch. Definitely don't envy having to peel out of a soaked track suit though. 😂😂.
Aaron Baxter $22 for one video... not sure if I can use it for anything else..
Could use it as an Easter egg.. lol...
Or do the next vid from the office chair and have it sit on the table next to you with a glass of brandy. 😂. Looks great in the MJ documentary..
If you don’t get jacked up watching the MJ doc you aren’t a human.. I think it is great for the younger generation to truly understand how great he was.
@@FutureProGoaltending I fully agree.. might change a few younger minds on who the NBA'S GOAT is.
(Not trying to start a comment war)😂
Great video, very informative for someone like me that is just now going to try to play goalie and entertaining.
Dorb 43 the is for watching
Great video! I have used this method in the past and it does work very well. I liked that you referenced GoalieCreaseNetwork at the end. Tomy Ames is a great local guy and I have learned a ton from watching his videos.
I really liked your comedic style as well as cautioning the kiddos to be safe with the hot water and have an adult help out. Well done Coach!!
Jack Muren thanks Jack
Tomy is a great guy and a friend
Just dawned on me that I have a question that could make or break my glove break in. Which show is better for glove break in?
1) Red Green
2) Letterkenny
3) Shoresy
The fate of the free world might just depend on it.
Ex- Strathroy Rocket…. Jared Keeso so Shorsey
@@FutureProGoaltending Stick tap to season two. Soo don’t want nothin’ to do with the Jims.
I put my glove under my couch and now I have a wavy palm... what should I do to fix it?
Re heat it and reform it
Thanks for the drill towards the end I need to work on my puck handling and that will give something else easy to do at home to help
Bobby T. Anytime! Thanks for watching
I have the same microwave and I'm not allowed to use it to nuke my glove either... If you ARE planning to break your glove in by running it over, I recommend a lightweight exotic such as the Lambo or Ford GT seen previously rather than a truck!
I "rinse" my gloves out with my water bottle in the room before warmups, it helps soften them up just a little bit more rather than being all dry and crunchy.
Kris Rogers taking them to the bath tub could also work?
@@FutureProGoaltending That's probably a better choice for my gloves anyway, they definitely need a cleaning 🦨
😎👍🏒🥅Eddie "the Eagle" Belfour!
Matthew Paluch game changer
Same shirt 24 hours later - just like me. Thanks Steve!
Yup
oh, the keeps33 method. Nice.
Thanks for watching!
Tried this with an older Vaughn V3 that was worn by my daughter half a season before an injury stopped her from playing. Decided to start playing again myself and her old glove and blocker were good to go, albeit still stiff. The glove is buttuh now.
Nice ! 90% of the time it works every time.
@@FutureProGoaltending And now I know what I’m going to put on my mask wrap. 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏻
In all seriousness, did I read in one of the other comments that repeating this process a time or two more would be helpful?
@@RolandMillington yes. You can do it a million times. No new gloves in the last 10 years have any real leather in them. So moisture cant hurt them in any way.
How do u dry it tho. I’m worried that it will not dry fully and will grow mold
Your gear gets soaking wet every time you wear it so dry it just as you would your normal way after a game. There is zero chance of mold
Great video, but will all the hot water ruin the inside materials of the glove?
Nope
@@FutureProGoaltending alright thank you
Will this water ruin my glove?
Your glove has no natural materials in it anymore and if water could ruin it your sweat would...😎
@@FutureProGoaltending Thank you hopefully it works!!
This is gold! Good info and hilarious
Thanks
I tried it and it was closing no problem but now it’s only closing a little bit a puck can slip out
The glove looks huge
#sizematters 😎
Great video and amazing job sneaking in that Belfour signature!! Any Belfour fan had to know what he's talking about :)
Thank you!!
😜
So I've been using my new glove a few weeks before properly breaking it in. Too late to run this process to break it in further?
You can do this anytime
Awesome! Now, how in the H-E- double hockey sticks do you pick up a puck with the catcher?? What’s the trick??
Ah..... the tough questions!
I'm 34.....
Hey ma? Can you come here for a sec and supervise me?
Sure
The stick you put in your glove they make one that they put in the gloves do you know where I could purchase one?
Very easy to make your own. Just cut the end off a broken stick. measure the distance needed and add 1/2 “
Idk what to do?
doing this expanded the foam inside my glove and now it’s even worse just an fyi
Interesting
hey I use this method but over like 15 days it starts to harden up again what do I do
Drop a little water in it before use
yes i'll take my Vaughn trapper mid rare please...do you mean to tell me that people will spend the money on a trapper and then put the glove in the oven or run it over? seriously? i mean i never played in the NHL, but dam i played goal most of my life and have never even heard of doing that. would never have even thought about doing something that stupid especially when you have to pay for your own equipment.
Oh yes…. People know pros get their glove baked in skate ovens etc. so they “try it” in their ovens and the run it over with a car thing is 100% done…. (No idea why people would try that on an expensive glove)
@@FutureProGoaltending Really pro goalies put their gloves in the skate oven. wow never knew, but then as a kid i grew up watching Bobby Orr so playing goal didn't happen till i grew up.
i just did what you showed as i learned how to break in my baseball (1st basemen) glove the same way.
A pipe bruh??? Your gonna stink up the track outfit
Stunt props are expensive... wouldn’t even know how to light one.
Didn’t Irbe get the team bus to run over his pads???
I had heard that. They certainly looked like they were.
How long should you leave the stick in it propping it open? If it is under the couch for say 36 hours is that a problem?
No problem
And how long should I keep the stick in after the couch?
I’ve done this seven times and I can’t break my glove in I have a Bauer supreme . Bought it used. I’ve had it for two years and can’t get it loose enough SOMEBODY HELP ME I’ve tried everything. I might run it over with my car because idk what else to do please help
May have to cut your losses and change gloves. Sorry for you tough times
@@FutureProGoaltending do you think running it over with my car will do anything
@@lukevogel2810 likely nothing…. But don’t do it while you are wearing it. 😎
Good video but ive tried all the techniques that u recomended here but they wont work on my vaughn ve8 it wont close the leather on the palm is interfiring with it closing all the way any other ideas?
It may be defective. But if you have spent dozens of hours flexing it on you couch and doing the stuff for the video you may need to switch gloves
@@FutureProGoaltending k thanks
Good tips, thank you sir ! Out of curiosity, can this method make the palm and finger stalls a little more "dry" after the whole process ?
No. They get fully soaked and equally wet when you play with them. This water is no different than sweat!
@@FutureProGoaltending Make sense, thank you for the quick answer !
I like the idea of the test..... Makes sense !
Many can’t hold the stick with the glove alone
Just got my first brand new glove (I have been using hand me downs) and I got the Bauer gsx, I’m trying your method would it still work?
Yes sir
@@FutureProGoaltending also, how long should I keep it propped open for?
@@bigunguschungus9138 repeat the entire process 3-4 times and it will be great, and opening it duration is up to you. The other things are more important. This process is from the 80s and no idea who came up with it back then
Does this hurt the padding at all ?
Jackson Bernard not at all...
Fantastic thanks for the tips
Of course
is that a v4 glove?
MrGoalieboy29 not sure... was just a junker we used for the video
I’ve tried multiple methods with my ccm glove and NOTHING works. There is a wavy palm in the middle, I don’t know what to do can anyone help
May have to change brands
@@FutureProGoaltending yeah, I’m considering getting the vapor 3x goalie set, in 6 weeks (end of the season) is there any other good sets you could recommend?
@@yeaimayoutubeuser7695 Vaughn baby!
@@FutureProGoaltending how’s the glove on Vaughn?
@@yeaimayoutubeuser7695 love them
A Christian stick!!!!!! Dang the memories.
Game used Belfour, super light..
FutureProGoaltending used that same
model of stick
Nice
isn't this the keeps33 method or whatever it was called?
This has been done for years before Keeps 33 was even born. I can put you in touch with a current NHL equipment manager that has been using this method since the late 80s. So to be clear Keeps33 didn’t invent this. It was been used before he first strapped on pads….lMK if you want to email the nHL equipment manager for proof…😎
@@FutureProGoaltending can I have his email for tricks about gear and question about pros lol keeps 33 taking credit for the trick
@@Sevastian_Donahue of course… someone who hasn’t played coached and scouted for over 45 years may not know as much as someone who has….
@@FutureProGoaltending lmao coach then I’ll have two legends to talk to
Played with a Christian Curtis Curve for years. Still have one left. Weighs a ton compared with the new sticks.
I remember those and that weird Vaughn blocker that had a funny shaped face on it
@@FutureProGoaltending never had that blocker, but I can tell you that the shaft of the Curtis curve laid flat in the paddle down position and nothing squeaked under it.
Steve Prokos i di use it briefly but the Curtis curve died I believe because puck handling was impossible.
@@FutureProGoaltending Agreed. Reliability was also an issue as I had many break about 6 inches from the butt end if a puck hit it just right.
Just unwrapped my glove after following your break-in process and all I can say is wow. I thought it was broken in after playing with it for more than a year, but it is so much better now. Opens and closes easily and your "stick holding test" took much less effort. Thanks!!
I am using a tennis ball for my hand eye is there another ball that I should use
Lacrosse ball!
@@FutureProGoaltending i don’t have one
@@hockeygoalie8895 Amazon will have them and they are cheap or even one of those old school red/white/blue rubber balls at the dollar store
@@FutureProGoaltendingwould a tennis ball work tho
@@hockeygoalie8895 not bad but not crazy bouncy
