Description

This is a defensive gap drill. X is the puck carrier and O is the defensive player. X goes as fast as they can carrying a puck with the goal of getting the puck into the net at the far end. O wants to skate and maintain the gap, which is controlled by the pylons, with the goal of preventing the shot at the far end. The gap can be controlled by the position of the pylons.
