Ekblad Walks the Blue Line

https://vimeo.com/847835569

Getting inside the dots and making yourself as much of a threat as possible is a great offensive skill for defenders.

What to Watch

  • Ekblad receives the puck and immediately moves himself inside the dots.
  • He recognizes the space he is given and his first touch of the puck helps him get inside the dots.
  • As he walks the line his head is up and he is scanning the ice.
