Tip What
to do with the puck In the games that we have attended we have seen plenty of players skating up to the puck and slapping it away when no one is near them. We can call this many things “hope for the best hockey’ - “slap hockey” - “If I don’t have the puck I can’t get in trouble hockey” or “I don’t want it you take it hockey” You get the point. The puck is usually slapped where no one is, or to the other team. This is not what we want you to do. When you skate up to a puck you have 2 choices. CARRY THE PUCK until someone takes it away, or make a PLAY WITH THE PUCK. It could be as simple as, passing to teammate, skating to the red line and dumping it in, or shooting. If a player keeps this in his memory bank and keeps it readily available for recall in any given situation the chances of making a bad play are almost impossible and rare. We believe there are bad CHOICES made in those situations so keep the choice list short. You have 2 choices
You
can make a play by doing the following and
advanced
players can add to list of plays. The more advanced you become the more you
will be able to start anticipating or seeing 2, 3 or 4 plays ahead or in
advance.
Now the only variable is making a PLAY or the above. The more advanced you become the more you will be able to start anticipating or seeing 2, 3 or 4 plays ahead or in advance. This is a short list of choices , and not much to think about and that is what we all want, our students and players DOING better. In no way are we suggesting that you be a puck hog. When you hog the puck, you now have to beat 9 players on the ice to get a goal. For example look at all the best players they do not hog the puck they make the proper choice and plays every time. Want to learn more about this then get into our Forward and Defensive clinics coming this month. For now study this chart below on a regular basis and begin to understand what to do with the puck. Hope this helps Follow the chart below for extra help with your game and no more “hope for the best hockey’ - “slap hockey” - “If I don’t have the puck I can’t get in trouble hockey” or “I don’t want it you take it hockey”
