Huntsville 3 v 3

 

Use the center ice circle.  Players outside the circle can't go inside and players inside the circle can't cross the redline or go outside the circle.  Focus on quick decisions, puck movement and shots from good angles.  Pucks go out of the playing area, new pucks come from the coach.  Fun game.

 

 

Sweden 4 v 2 PP/PK Game

 

Focus of the game is getting possession of the puck, keeping it and scoring with the man advantage.  2 v 2 turns into a 4 v 2 when the team earns possession of the puck.  Players involved with the original 2v2 can go anywhere in the neutral zone, added players (2 extra) can only go on their side of the red line.  Score, and you keep the puck (breaking out from behind your own net).  Other team misses the net, you get a new puck from your own end and keep the man advantage.  Play till whistle.  New 2 v 2 every minute.
