Stance Analysis Please

I know the picture is bad. But it took me a half an hour to enlarge that selection from the bigger picture, and then brighten it up so u all could see it.

Now can I get some pointers on what to do to make it better? I think I have to get my glove hand down, and more open. I normally do that. But not during warmups.

But I'm more worried about my blocker hand. Being 6'3, and using a 26" paddle, i'm not sure whether or not it's in good positioning.

I do think I have to get lower. But It was my first year on ice.

Thanks for looking at the picture and for your opinion. If the picture doesn't work, just copy and paste it into your browser

Looks like double coverage with your blocker covering the top of the pad. Try and holding your stick in front of you so it creates a 45 degree angle with the ice. I'll try and find a pic. This way the space between your arm and chest is covered.

The picture is taken at an angle... I think my stick is perpendicular to the ice, but since there is an angle it might seem like a hole...

Tough to tell from 1 picture, but it looks like your balance is too high up and back and the stick is too close to your skates.

Say Twister, do you have a link that works? Or are you having more pics taken?
