Description

X1 starts with the puck, enters the zone on-sides and makes an indirect, behind the net pass to X2.
X1 then skates to the high slot.
X2 retrieves the puck, skates out past the goal line and makes a pass to X1 in the high slot. X1 one-times the pass ON NET.

Coach dumps another puck into the corner. X1 drives in to retrieve. X2 fades out to the high slot.
X1 skates out past the goal line and makes a centering pass to X2, who one-times the pass ON NET.

The Coach can keep this drill going by dumping more pucks into the zone. Players keep rotating 1 getting the puck, and 1 getting open in the slot.

Notes: This drill will progress into a 2on1, to force the player in the slot to read the D, and get open for the pass. While the D works on getting in the passing lane, while not abandoning the front of the net.
