Golden Knights fans are used to dropping some serious money, so what’s another $3,480 for a virtual reality hockey training system — plus $300 for the accompanying hockey stick with haptic feedback and a $199 monthly license fee — to practice your shot in your rec room?
Developed by Sense Arena in the Czech Republic, the simulator sends virtual pucks your way, as fast as you can stand them, to shoot at the virtual goalie.
Depending upon your skill, or lack thereof, that goalie can be nearly as effective — if nowhere near as acrobatic or endearing — as Marc-Andre Fleury.
