Power Play Drop Pass Breakout:

I must admit that the drop breakout is my favorite in a Power Play situation.

It is not the only one, but the drop breakout allows you to focus on zone entry. Have 4 players attacking the offensive blue line with speed to play the rush.

In addition with a few adjustments, it allows you to play against almost all the P.K. fchk.

Some key points:

1. Drop the puck as late as possible.
2. Stay inside the dotsas long as possible.
3. Position the high post at the red line.
4. Respect the road: Keeper drive / Outside Drive / 2 high support. Some teams will replace the outside drive for a Bumper.

The main focus is on O-Zone entry and the the rush. At a high level, pre-scooting the opposing team allows players to have precise information on the pressure put by the P.K. fchk and therefore to make the best decision based on trends.
