High Cycle (Scissor Play)

Diagrams     

Description

2 lines near blue line. Middle line shoots on net, then skates to corner to retrieve puck. Line closest to boards skates down wall, to pick up cycle pass from first forward, who then goes to the net for a return pass and shot on goal.

Notes: Here as the puck carrier moves the puck along the boards the
defenseman at the point activates, skating between the puck carrier and the boards. As they meet the puck carrying forward leaves the puck for the defenseman then attempts to take the opposing defender with him, creating space for the puck carrying defenseman to move into or pass.
