A)Coach dumps puck in for breakout. D hits curling winger on wall and then jumps up ice to close the gap on the opposite side where the winger who broke out from the other end is attacking on 1 on 1.

Progression:

B) Same drill but add a forward who takes the Center lane for a second breakout option and the two forwards go down and play the two on 1 on the D who jumped up to close the gap.

Progression 2:

C) Now we introduce X1 and X2 as backchecks who put a "little" pressure on the first pass and at least gets clsoe to goal line then back checks on the 2 on 1.

Notes: Starts with 4 guys going, moves to 6 quickly (2on1) then to 8 guys when we add the backcheckers.

Tags: Both sides going. Can start with 1on1 to 2on1 to 2on 1 with X (backchecker)
