Coyle Cutback Off Wall Retrieval Below Goal Line

By: Ice Hockey Systems

A sharp cutback can be a great skill to master to create time and space down low in the offensive zone. Charlie Coyle does a masterful job in this clip.

What to Watch

• Before Coyle retrieves the puck off the wall his toes and head show that he is going to continue up the wall.
• Once he receives the puck uses a sharp cutback using the inside edge of his left skate and outside edge of his right skate to make a sharp cutback.
• After the cutback he keeps his feet moving to create separation, giving his time and space to make a play.
