Being able to control the puck on the forehand as well as the backhand is obviously very important for every hockey player. HOWEVER, there are some situations in games, where if the player could just manage to keep the puck on the forehand instead of shifting to the backhand, then they would be able to make a better play. Soft-catching a pass on the forehand and quickly getting a shot off (many players add a stickhandle to the backhand because it feels more comfortable) is just one of many situations that comes to mind, where being able to keep the puck on the forehand could be the difference between scoring or not. A Toe Drag is another frequently seen example where forehand-only skills are key. In this workout video we'll do five drills that will help you keep the puck on the forehand and make you a better player! Have fun practicing!
