Steal this drill from TCS Live presenter Colin Downey to get your players working on their wall play and picking up rims. 

Description

  • Players line up on opposite dots and face opposite ways
  • One player from line A and C leave the line with a puck skating towards the neutral zone
  • One player from line B and D leave with a puck and skate over their goal line
  • All four players rim their puck clockwise
  • Progressions include skating with the rim, turning into the rim, and whatever you can think of

Part two has line A and B rimming the puck while line C and D leave their puck on the yellow for A and B to skate down and collect.

Key Points

  • Communicate! Call for the rim, make life easier for your teammate
  • Make sure you scan the ice before the rimmed puck arrives. Shoulder check both ways, just like you're crossing the street
