My names Austin Lotz, for those of you who don’t know me I am a junior hockey goalie. No I’m not drafted or signed, and no I’m not playing right now. I am currently spending my 5th and final year of junior hockey at home, recovering from shoulder surgery. When Lowsy asked me to participate in his new website and write this article, I struggled for a week or two to find a topic. It’s not that there isn’t anything for me to say, but being a player who is still driven to be a professional hockey player and is still working his --- off every day to become one, it was tough for me to come up with an interesting aspect of my career and share it, without crossing the line of “acceptableâ€. So here’s my story, the gigantic ups and downs that come with not only being a junior hockey player, but also a young goalie.
