Description

This replaces our "Horseshoe" drill. Very similar, but the defencemen line up at center. One forward then passes a puck to the D-Man, he stops the puck, turns and starts skating backwards. The forward and his partner from the opposite corner skate out , cross paths (with one picking up the puck) and come in on our net in a 2 on 1 situation. Try to make 1 or 2 passes before taking a shot. The defenceman doesn't play too aggressive and this should help the forwards warm up their passing and gets the goaltender moving laterally. The trailing forward should also go in for the rebound.
