Flank Game

Drill Diagram

Description

The game begins 2 vs. 2 with teams also having two support flank players on both
sides in the offensive zone. The flank players can only skate up and down their flank
and not into the play. The players with the puck can use their flank players to set up a 4
vs. 2, simulating a power play situation. The flank players can pass or shoot when they
receive the puck. On the whistle for a change, the flank players stay and go into the
play, 2 vs. 2, and four new players (two on each team) now become the flank players.
