To start LD and RD at the blue line. (C) dumps puck into LD corner. LD takes 2-3 backwards strides, pivots, and opens up to go get puck. SHOULDER CHECK and takes an angle (doesn't skate straight at the puck). LD picks up the puck and wheels behind the net. Focus on head up and finding the passing lane before the near post. Find X1. LD passes to X1 and continues up ice back to left side and pivots above blue line for 2nd part of the drill (RD retrieves puck).

To start RD on dump in skates backwards through the middle of the ice. Keep hips and shoulders up ice to see what's coming for LD. Call out "WHEEL". Once LD has made the pass RD steps up ice and moves back to right side and up to blue line. At blue line pivots and starts backwards (C) then dumps puck in for RD to complete drill.

X1/X2 act as wingers and are there simply to retrieve the puck on pass and send back to (C).

If Goalie is in net have them communicate and call "WHEEL" as well as dump the puck in to get them out to stop the puck for D to pick up and wheel.
