This drill was created using HockeyShare.com's Online Drill Drawing & Practice Planning Platform.

Description

Coach or player hard rims puck around boards. D1 holds line and then hits D2 with pass. D2 takes quick shot on net. D2 then becomes D1, D3 becomes D2, etc. Run both sides.

Progression - coach can pressure D1 and either take away D2 passing lane or take away shot and force D1 to make the right decision: shoot, pass to D2 or dump back in corner.

Notes: Could start with just 1 D pinching and then come off the wall to shoot. Then progress to 2 D with D to D pass.
