5v0/3v2

PURPOSE

• Breakout positioning and breakout variations to a zone entry.

HOW TO

• Line of forwards and 2 D outside blue. Dump puck in zone.
• D retreats, forwards set up for break out.
• Breakout of zone and regroup in neutral zone. Try not to enter in a perfectly straight line – create and manage space.
• Enter zone back on the two D that broke the puck out.

FOCUS

• Quick, responsible, creative breakouts with accurate passing
• Making sure forwards get low to be a good passing option with good passing angles (35 to 55 degrees)
• On-side zone reentry with motion

VARIATIONS

• Add forwards to forecheck, adding another element of pressure for the breakout as well as working on forecheck positioning
• Add two more D to points to regroup to
