Angling game. Two players line up opposite each other. One player receives a pass from coach. That player must quickly move the puck to the other player and take a good angle to force them outside. Keep them to the backhand when possible. P2 starts with a puck on their stick facing away from the line. P1 skates and lifts the stick to win the puck. P1 turns with the puck and passes back to P2. P2 has a give and go towards the net before shooting. P1 takes the place of P2 and gets a new puck from coach. D on blue line are working with forwards from corners. F1 and F2 attack the net together. The D in front of the net should try and box out one F. D up top should look for an open player backdoor or shoot for a quick screen. D rotate around. Good for 2 D. Can also have two nets if two goalies as shown or just one.
Passing, angling, steering, attacking 1 on 1, puck protection, D try to force to backhand. give and go, turning with puck, passing, keep moving. Box out, low to high, anticipate, tips/screen, battle for position.
