Instructor

Cap Raeder

Tampa Bay Lightning Goaltending Coach, Cap Raeder will be at the Governor's Academy teaching Goalies:

Cap has been a Goaltending Coach in the NHL for over 20 years. A precise tactician, Cap has been an integral part of the development of several NHL star goalies, such as former Calder Trophy winner (NHL Rookie of the
year) and NHL All-Star Evgeni Nabakov, Vezina Trophy winner (NHL’s best goaltender) Miikka Kiprusoff , Vesa Toskela and many more.

After starring (All-American) at the University of New Hampshire in 1974, Cap went on to play for the Hartford Whaler’s in the World Hockey Association, a rival league to the NHL, boasting stars such as Bobby
Hull and Gordie Howe. Cap went on to play for Team USA in the 1976 Canada Cup (now known as the World Cup of Hockey). Prior to his current position as goaltending coach for the Tampa Bay Lightning, Cap was

Instructor

Mike Buckley

The area’s top pro, college, junior, high school, prep and youth hockey goalies choose Mike Buckley for the proven success of his systematic approach to goaltending. The system builds on the six core fundamentals of goaltending; skating, stance, positioning, save selection, rebound control and recovery. Mike has a system for each, properly developing goaltenders, while allowing goalies to develop their own style based on their strengths, creating quick efficient movements and confidence in their game. This trendsetting approach to training goalies is quickly changing the way goaltenders are taught. Mike is the first to implement this system making him a pioneer in the position.

Mike has more than 10 years of coaching experience. His year-round private and summer students include Dan Ellis (Nashville Predators), Mike Morrison (Bridgeport Tigers/New York Islanders), Jeff Pietrasiak (Texas Wildcatters), Jean-Marc Pelletier, Andy Chiodo, Chanda Gunn and college goaltenders from BC, UNH, UMass, Vermont, Merrimack, Brown, Northeastern, Quinipiac, UConn, Salem State, Southern New Hampshire,
St. Anselm’s and more. In addition to being president of GDS, Inc. Mike is also the goaltending coach for the University of Massachusetts - Amherst.

Cap and Mike will be supported by a very experienced staff of goalie coaches, including Corey Hirsch, Tony Martino and John Haley.
