From the Cranbrook Bucks, Kootenay Hockey Academy, and TCS's own, Kelvin Cech is here to harp on breakout habits specific to game day skates. 

Description

• Players start from centre ice, two D and three forwards
• Coach dumps puck into zone, D break out forwards who pass puck back to coach
• Coach dumps new puck while two forwards from previous rep forecheck the next unit of 5
• Drill is continuous

Key Points

• The drill happens fast, so players need to be organized in their colours in line
• Centres need to track hard through the house and communicate with the D
• Wingers need to make the next play once the puck is on their stick
