2 on 1 Backchecker Shooter

Drill Diagram

Description

D starts with pick in corner and goes behind the net and as they do this the two forwards on either side come down the wall for a breakout pass and the two forwards go down 2 on 1 to start with no backchecker. The one who shoots needs to get below dots and touch bottom of circle and backcheck hard thru middle as two new forwards slide down wall for a breakout pass in the other end from a new D who start by grabbing puck either from bank pass off the boards from coach or just a loose puck sitting behind the net. The D will change after they do one breakout and one 2 on 1 back down.

Notes: Progress to 3 on 1 where 2 backcheck and try 3 on 2 with 1 backchecker. Switch sides that the D are in to breakout other way at halfway mark.
