Coachella Valley Head Coach Derek Laxdal drops in to share a simple but effective half ice breakout to get your players warm by moving their feet and the puck. 

Description

• Players are at centre ice, teams run on opposite sides
• Coach spots a puck in the zone, players track into the D-zone in layers
• Run different breakouts like goalie handles, reverses, etc.
• Pass to coach after breakout, and coach spots the puck again
• Run four times, four breakouts

Key Points

• Helpful for pregame or pre-practice warmups
• Create habits by running routes and executing on passes
