Malcolm Subban’s eyes darted — left to right, right to left, left to right — around the Zoom screen as he imitated Blackhawks goaltending coach Jimmy Waite’s advice.
Throughout the offseason and especially during the first week of training camp, Waite and developmental goaltending coach Peter Aubry have taught Subban to move his eyes and head first when he sees a shot coming. That gives him more time to locate and track the puck while he moves his body to the correct angle.
The technique is called ‘‘eyes first,’’ and Subban said the effects of advice such as that from Waite and Aubry have been ‘‘huge.’’
