M2 Regroup 2v0
SKILLS
PURPOSE
Generating and managing gap on regroups and regrouping with motion and speed.
HOW TO
- Drill can be run simultaneously, one side, or alternating sides
- Start with a D on one side of the center circle with puck, forward between the red & blue on the same vertical side of the D but opposite lateral side.
- D uses C-cuts and backward crossovers to pull puck backwards around the circle and toward the blue.
- Once toward the far edge of the circle, the pass to the forward in a post-up ready position (forward: BE READY to move!).
- Forward gets takes a few strides as they release a quick pass back to the D.
- D reads the forwards path, makes the regroup outlet
- Both head up ice in a 2v0
FOCUS
- Skating – driving hard off the toes to get around the circle quickly and efficiently
- Gap management – retreating with control and intent
- Passing – tape to tape, giving and locating a target
- Add another pass from the corner to the D as a trailer creating a point shot instead of a true 2v0
- Add another forward and D
