Who doesn't love a little chaos in practice? No one, that's who. Bring a little mayhem to practice to keep your players thinking and moving with this drill from Northville High School's Ryan Ossenmacher.

Description

• Players are lined up on two neutral zone faceoff dots.
• Players start with keepaway with their own team on their half of the ice.
• Different amounts of players are released from line.
• On the whistle, coaches announces release one - which means one player from one team attacks opposing team to clear their puck.

Key Points

• Scan the ice with possession of the puck, know who's open.
• Keep eyes up and edges connected to the ice to maximize agility and dynamic movement.
• Force your players to perceive what's happening around them.
