D Low to High/D to D Quick Release is a great drill for working on passing and shooting at the offensive blue line.

Featured in the 2022 Global Skills Showcase, this drill from Ilia Khanenko allows players to work on defence puck movement skills.

Description

C1: Low to high pass, quick D to D pass and quick release shot. Rotate D after every 4-5 shots.
C2: D take and make passes in movement moving laterally along the blue line. Start with D to D pass and quick release shot then progress to sliding along the blue line before passing back to D at the middle of the blue line for a quick release shot.

• Work on lateral movement along the blue line to get shots past the shot blockers.
• Quick release wrist shots or one timers when on the correct side.
• Hit the net with low, hard shots.
