This is a skating situation we often see in an NHL or any other high level game. Defence are constantly harped on to kill plays and have a good gap. This drill and skating skills can help them achieve a better gap, and ultimately close quicker on the puck carrier. 

Part 1 was last week showing some of the pre edge drills we did that prepared the places for this situation.
