This drill focuses on working power play skills with a lot of player and puck movement in a small space.

Description

Set up two nets low on the goal line. Two teams set up 4vs2 in both halves of the end zone. Coach starts play by passing to one attacking team to start 4vs2 play. Upon recovering the puck, the defenders or the goalie can move the puck to the other side to their players to continue the 4vs2 play.

Key Points

• Great game for sharpening power play skills. Objectives should be quick puck movement and developing a lot of scoring chances in a short time.
• Coaches should alternate sides when making the first pass to start play.
• With limited numbers, on each change of players, two attackers can move over to the other side to defend.
• Shift lengths can be 25-40 seconds in this game.
