Pulling the goalie increases the volatility of outcomes, which is great if you hold an option (i.e. lagging by 1-2 points at the end of the game).
Great analogy for the investing world.
Loved this analogy of pulling the goalie and operating debt from @chenholdco:
“Team that pulls its goalie nearly quadruples the probability of its opponent scoring, while not even doubling its own chance to score."
