As a former goalie that played about a level or two above this, I don’t generally like to watch goalies on UA-cam very much because I pick apart everything and honestly, that’s not very fair to the goalie I’m watching. I don’t see what he’s seeing on the ice because I’m not there obviously. The fundamentals that I see mistakes in, I’m not gonna be that guy either. As goalies we already judge ourselves harder then most players do. I’ve only mentioned in one of your videos that you’re a bit lazy on your stick side, which happens and it’s not some sign of horrible fundamentals or anything. Just something I saw in some videos that looked like a pattern or just a bad habit maybe.
Your movement is good, post to post you’re on par with goalies at that level. Your skating needs work but that can be said for literally every goalie out there. One tip though…please don’t poke check like that again…ever. 😂…I’m just playing, but if you’re going to do that from that post especially, you need to fully commit to it, which you didn’t and you know that I’m sure. Work a bit more on your high glove side maybe 🤷🏻♂️, I notice you don’t get that glove up and back to your ear or even further behind your head when you’re trying to stop a high glove shot. You need to follow through with that “windmill” motion with your trapper even on shots that don’t require that effort. The muscle memory of doing it consistently is what will save you some goals against.
I’m sorry for all this…I just wanted to give some small pointers that might help you or someone reading this. No disrespect intended at all and I respect you grinding like you are bud. I am also a full right goalie, so I see a lot of things and I can explain a lot of things to someone else that’s full right also like yourself.
And I’m sure you know this, but every goalie needs to hear this daily almost, play with confidence out there. “Act as if…” as in, act as if you already know what’s gonna happen. Act as if you already won this game. Act as if you skated out to the crease with a 10 inch d**k. You know what I’m saying. Remember that there’s nothing they can throw at you that you haven’t seen a million times, especially already.
This game is so much about your mental state once you’ve reached even this level. And it only becomes more important as you move up. If the game is tied and in the last minute, you should WANT the puck in your zone and coming at you. When it’s inside your blue line and the games on the line, you should be begging to face a shot. Because when it’s down at your end, you have control over the outcome. And mentally, you should’ve already made the “big save” that kept you in the game. If it’s already been done in your mind, you can convince your body to do the same thing.
Best of luck to you though dude. Live this dream as long as you can! Take pride in it even. If I was younger I’d trade places with you in a heartbeat!
This was sooooo well said
I would say you should play Manitoba Senior League, because technically it's still "pro hockey" by your definition because some players get paid, but you're not even good enough to be a starter there lol
“There are no boards” he continues to say as the boards are in sight. Glass my guy…it’s missing glass
i was dropped on a dishwasher as a kid
At 0:26 several boards at the Zamboni entrance area are not installed back yet. Plus several boards from the sides where the stair entrance boards are to the floor are missing too.
***So depending on what parts/clips of this video you both are correct.!
0:26 That was shot right after a FLIP . Ie going back to a hockey rink after a concert. The grey 2x2 meter floor covers are already removed and stored away. These floor covers are installed over the ice for events. How many dasher boards are removed depends on the event size and type.
The black chairs at 0:42 are ones for a non ice event. Normally they are a different type white used for public skating patrons.
So what happens you wait until all the white daaher boards are up before having hockey practice. Most are at the beginning of this video but not all are. So Trav here is correct at the start that the boards are not all up yet so no practice just yet. :)
When the glass is not back up yet they do have hockey practice and pucks go *all over* the two goal ends. Ie many many dozens on each end. So while visiting practice some of us troublemakers :) throw them back in. Ie lob a few at Trav , Shepherd or Wyreck in goal too. Trav stopped all the 5 bucks I tossed back in. But I should have tried a Salvo of 3 at once. :)
The rink ice area is way hotter without the glass back up yet. Ie after a Flip. So playing hockey without the glass back is way more exhausting since warmer.
The plastic plexiglass larger "glass" panels are 4x8ft plexiglass 1/2 inch thick. The operations crew has groups of them on carts they bring in to add back the glass and aluminum vertical glass holding pieces.
For Disney on ice the non zamboni entrance boards are left up and the stairway board entrances are removed. Then the sides are covered with 2 sections of 2x2 meter grey flooring. Plus the non zamboni goal end covered too. So the Ice surface for Disney is smaller. The zamboni end is not covered at all but is behind the Disney backdrop .
Some dasher boards are not back up yet at the beginning of this video
Re Dasher boards and Glass;
At 0:26 several boards at the Zamboni entrance area are not installed back yet. Plus several boards from the sides where the stair entrance boards are to the floor are missing too.
So this video at the start has missing boards and later clips in the video all the boards are all in place.

You are detailed. Thanks for the comment bro
Andddd he's gone.
the barn is insane
Teammates dont look to happy with the camera following them around always... if you are as serious as you claim... forget the content and just focus on being a goalie and teammate. Not a Kardashian
Have you seen him play?
Supposedly UA-cam pays his bills. The fed pays $150 a week. Any player playing hockey for camp change like this in the fed needs to hang it up and get out in the real world. For Travis luckily he can drop playing d league pro hockey and keep making content.
@flatmoontheory yes?.. what you getting at?
ENJOY THE OPPORTUNITY TO THE FULLEST TRAV! 😊
Keep your head up ked!
To be fair guys, it can take a while for everything to come back or get better after going under the knife or even breaking something. It's hard to bounce back from this stuff.not a fan or a hater of Trav, but enjoy watching the journey. It's better than most TV shows
Love ya buddy. Chasing your dream is always better than sitting on your ass. Proud to support you since back in your ice dawg days 🎉
Thanks for being an OG man
Always looking forward to watching your videos! You inspired me to get my old ass off the couch and back into hockey. Keep grindin Trav!
Rink looked awesome, sorry to hear you couldn't find your place in Mississippi. Hope you're doing well bud, I'll follow the rest of the story for sure.
His issue is bad-mouthing teams after he leaves, He goes on and on and on for months about how he's so excited to be playing for Watertown, and once he gets released for sucking, he bad mouths them.Every single team has given Trav a chance and he hasn't impressed yet. No wonder teams wanna move on from a guy when he shoves a camera in everyone's face. "Well he gives them good publicity." What pro hockey team needs a UA-camr constantly walking around with a camera for exposure
Trav I know you're dealing with mental stuff right now and I'm really sorry, it sucks. But you need to take some responsibility and stop torching teams for xyz
I am genuinely excited when I join a new team. If I am deceived, lied too or taken advantage of I am fully entitled to say I "happy to not be there anymore". I don't see the problem.
Bro he’s not bad mouthing teams
They probably talk bad and if you’ve been here since the beginning you would know trav always makes sure that he’s allowed to do UA-cam
And he’s always said if they said no he would give it up
Dude, STFU. I’m so sick of people bad mouthing trav. He’s living his dream. You’re all just bitter cause you didn’t live yours. Pro sports are tough. Even at the lowest level. It’s so easy to talk shit on a computer. Real men say it face to face.
@@trav4oilers You're right, you're entitled to do that, but like other commenters have mentioned, it's not a good look for you to be saying "raise your hand if you're not excited to be in watertown." It's probably why teams have no issue moving on you, and it's probably affecting the way other teams view you
Now, I don't think you're as bad as everyone likes to say you are. But I know you've heard the saying, "If everywhere you go smells like shit, maybe you're the one who smells like shit." If every team is lying or taking advantage of you, or misjudging your skills, then at some point you need to look inward.
It sucks to see you go through this. I really enjoy the vlogs and want to see you back with another pro team, but from a non-biased POV, I really think you need to ask yourself why this keeps happening
Trav very much reminds me of an ex I use to have. In the 6 month span of us living together she had well over 8 different jobs. And each time it was the same old song and dance. Day one of the job she would come home excited and tell me how amazing all her co-workers are and how it was the best job ever. Fast forward a few weeks and she would be singing a completely different tune; and would just be bad mouthing everyone and everything. That toxic mentality/outlook gets old and like others have said… at some point maybe the problem isn’t with everyone else it’s really with you.
youd think, after bouncing around teams a lot the last few years, youd have got the memo that you should just stop playing...
hey pal i was getting the bums rush too on my team too trying to shove me to 3rd tender but kept working out biding my time and listening to positive people-all the sudden an injury happened the 2nd tender lost his game while i made my opportunities count bing bam boom i'm the starter and no looking back now...remember...when one door closes another one opens-keep your head in it and only control what you can-the rest doesn't matter...good luck guy!🤞
Way she goes brother
bubbles and ray always said 'way of the road' lol@@trav4oilers
Trav Continue To Work Hard And Be Optimistic!!!!!!
Through and through
Head up Trav keep grinding
Love your videos
Trav, you need to look at the AIHL here in Australia... get in touch with some teams and see if they need a goalie. Season is short and it's a new country to explore.
I'd rather enjoy my summers and play during the winter!
@@trav4oilerstry europe again. Finland lower leagues, Denmark, France england, lost of leagues to play in
That sucks I was looking forward to you playing for Joe Pace.
Ty Trav!
Love Sheppards Warwick mask.
Keep going Trav!
Love the Boston T shirt at the end if the video
booooooston
There is no way these guys get paid. This goalie could barely play in a horrible Junior B league😆😆My beer league team is all over 40 and we would hammer those guys. We could play a line of players with cancer (which we have) never line change them and they could still beat these guys😆😆😆😆
i don’t understand how he got slower
And the Door Dasher comments begin. Your Popeyes chicken is 3 minutes way. Don’t worry…mom will get it for ya.
This morning, I took a couple of pics of MM's stick from when he was in the AHL. Will send them to you later.
God, you're really stretching whatever little content you have left eh?
It's not like you can drum up the excuse you're too busy to keep up with the vlog since you've been cut for almost a month now.
Watching the live stream oh your start was like watching a prep school team llaying against a peewee house team.. 😂
ohhhh that jersey is niiiice! where can I get one (shipped to australia 😅)
Things are looking great. Peace out!
He reminds me of a young Patrick Roy . . .
I DO NOT SEE YOU LISTED ON THE FPHL TEAM ROSTER... ARE YOU THE MASCOT?
Forced into retirement
Keep the podcast coming regardless of where or if you're playing. I am a full right, learning while in OLDER Beer league. Stop 736 - Thank you for your comments, _ if Trav doesn't accept & analyze your actions to his comments you should - Stop736 has no affiliation with your game, just another goalie watching & as I've found they are always there to help , but only when asked - found that out today when geetting my skates profiled - a customer 20 years my Jr helpful in every way answering my questions (BTW - I'm 74 yrs young)
AMEN jim. thanks bro and happy to help
I assume you are one of the older players? . With thst said are you proactive in talking up in the dressing room and or in practice? In a game are you directing your defense on what you want them to be position wise. My favorite verbiage to the defenceman was " i got the puck/ shot "
27 years old
@@trav4oilers so are you going to take initiative to give guidance to your teammates especially the defenceman? Cheers
Coolest jerseys you’ve had since Junior IMO. These are fire
He’s alr cut😭
@@ethanwebber7254 what???
@@OneTeeGlory He was cut a month ago
@@MrDcooper47 thanks guys really wanted to know before the vlogs dropped that’s really cool 😐
@@sherlockholmes60 no
Guy talks and walks like he is the best in the world 😅😅
I'm not gonna believe I suck lol you wouldnt watch
Dude I really hate to say it, but I think the surgery has made you slower than what you were before
is this bevor he got releasd or after?
Bro, this happend weeks ago…
Good vid trav sucks to hear in the podcast the stuff that happens oh well
Good vid keep grinding love you buddy
Love ya
You should come back and play in the THHL
I understand the “need” to put out content, but how can anyone enjoy this video knowing you’re no longer there? You don’t HAVE to post videos you’ve filmed. Again, long time supporter, but this ain’t it
why would I waste video I worked hard on to share?
Keep chasing your dream trav!
Haven’t watched much hockey but can the goalie carry two gloves or does he have to have a stick?
No idea tbh
"This guy is Jessie, I call him snowball because he's kinda white." Idk why but I laughed way too hard at this statement 🤣🤣
It's the little laughs ;)
Your feet are getting quicker from those FHL games experiences. You seem to compete smarter on each play too.
Thanks bro :)
Trav reminds me a lot of Denis Lemieux
Is that Swedish hockey team Frölunda Indians in the background at 6:32?
yes it i!
What is the dream Trav?
Will you actually play a game for the sea wolves again or will you be traded before then?
Dude was cut a month ago.
@@Logitech-de3pc ok I don’t watch the podcast. So I’m a bit behind….
"That makes two of us" comment...and you wonder why teams have no problem cutting you. If you fully edit a video and still leave that in, you must be showing just as bad of an attitude in the locker room. If it always smells like shit everywhere you go, maybe you need to take a look in the mirror.
I am genuinely excited when I join a new team. If I am deceived, lied too or taken advantage of I am fully entitled to say I "happy to not be there anymore". I don't see the problem.
Dont quit man, keep it up trav!!
How many pucks did you lose in the stands😂
a lot!
Without glass about 2 dozen plus go into each goal side ends for a 1 hour practice is what I collected a day when Trav was in practice with no glass up yet. So you just throw the pucks back in and try to score too.
At 4:29 three carts with Glass are going to be installed back. You can see a D on the D section plexiglass 4x8 ft panel on one cart.
"BOSTON" shirt - NOICE YAHDUDE
Trav: when you play in a bigger arena like that, do you have more trouble seeing the puck? like due to the size of building/seats in the background, etc.? just wondering if you have to adjust as a goalie when you play in larger facilities.
The lighting i find is what affects that
Why stand up when you always end up on your knees. Might as well stay on your knees to save energy
Elmira River Sharks just released there "#1 starter" only shows one goalie rostered!! give them a call
Replacing a cut goalie with another cut goalie. Interesting strategy.
We have been in touch
They signed a former SPHL goalie, Sammy Bernard.
Is that white dog a dogo argentino great bread have one myself
I think so?
Did Watertown get a bag of pucks for him or??
Traded for Dalton Anderson who is now on the Sea Wolves, ironically.
Yup, traded for that and hotel stays
Trav is like my son, I think he can play in this league, I hope he gets a fair chance. My son was a goalie, a pretty good one .
hey dad
@@trav4oilers your the best pal 😅🤣
You got released?
@@youtubeaccount6317 Well that's the sport, speaking for myself as a goalie you have good games and you have bad games, but good luck to Trav!
Always great watching a goalie who holds the stick with the correct hand.
Lol there’s always beer league…
So confused who are ya signed with now😂
I believe as of right now he hasn't signed with a new team
He's turning tricks of 5th and maple
Retire
Beer leagues are calling now!
@@Logitech-de3pc 😆
Get back to Sweden or Norway to continue playing.
I'd love too
"If you are going to come along with us, please refrain from saying things like 'preach' or 'go girl' or any other colloquialism that you may have looked up in an urban dictionary."
Trav you will get into hockey hall of fame in the category of being traded the most of any player in hockey 😀
You may be right
Vibe seems so much better stadium is sick for the fed
Trav it's nice to see you step back into the lions den and interact with us lowlife viewers.
Love the supporters of my vlog, got no time for the losers talking smack!
Get your ass to Elmira
Elmira river sharks cut there goalie btw trav they need one
been in touch already
They signed a former SPHL goalie, Sammy Bernard.
this vidoe is hard to watch knowing "the facts" youtube timing is always an issue. I hope you get another chance, i would think what you bring to the taqble in terms of outside attention would cause the team to keep you around, I can't believe the Elmira River Sharks havent called you yet , but I guess that FPHL 19 man roster is a real limitation
Already been in touch!
Don't listen to the hate keep on doing what you love man and people don't know how tuff you pro hockey is keep going
Love ya bro
I hate thay every save the knees hit the ice. Just old school goalie
Nice video. Oddly enough, you'll be on the team photo but you weren't with them that long. Not a big deal. I saw a number of other players get put on waivers after you. I think you need some new goalie coaches. At 4:46, you didn't even move after the player in the blue jersey passed it to the guy in the red jersey. In a run-and-gun style of league without good defense, that is going to burn you all day long.
Yes I will be :)
Trav help me get a game used puck with your autograph please
I dont have access bro
@trav4oilers how do you got have access grab the game puck at the end of the game or period and sign it and I will pay shipping would love it for my collection
Bruhhh 😂 stick to your podcast. Lol
Hi
Can tell confidence is down and that was no place to be sleeping. Seen better rooms in a crackhouse.
On to bigger and better things
Also, your better help ad . . . Vs your trav sucks code
You are what you eat. Talk better about yourself even if it’s a joke (because a lot of people say you suck). Guess what, you are what you eat!
Was actually feeling really good on this day
I don't get the hate towards a guy just doing what he loves. Is he sometimes cocky or arrogant or makes stipid comments on insta? Sure but as a tendy you need a bit of that attitude to build up confidence. Most haters here I bet are not willing or brave enough to stand between the pipes facing pro level shooters. All the best going forward Trav, I truly enjoy watching your videos and you seem like a likeable teammate
I could become a lifeless robot, but I dont think anybody would watch if that was the case?
Probably a rodeo, they forgot to put the boards up.
Quite a few people coming on here to talk smack.
Dude is doing what he wants with his life. Why waste your time coming on. Here to be negative?
Dude has been overly arrogant about his skill level and celebrity status for years, plus with multiple issues relating to the goaltending community as a whole, we're all just enjoying watching karma bite him back.
You wouldn't see so many people talking smack if Trav had been a humble or stand up dude. He's disliked for a reason.
Lots of losers out there
Even in your junior b stint you never had a winning record. Sorry man but your in over your capabilities
Bunch of beer league players talking crap on a guy who has been paid to play. Take a look in the mirror before attacking the guy
amen to that
@@trav4oilers keep your head up!
recording your staff, teammates, locker room, practice, shared living home should be made illegal, a lot of people are introverted and camera shy, u are making some teammates extremely uncomfortable, affecting their mental and thus their game. most people dont want to be on youtube getting shit on in the comments for their play or looks. u are directly responsible for peoples bad performances. not only is your own performance terrible year over year but i guarantee that your teammates complaining to management in private made the team owners decision to let u go a lot easier.
just all around cringe walking around with a camera (as a 5th string 30 year old goalie) filming people in the locker room, the food and begging people to compliment ur value village blazer.
