Nyquist Rolls Off Wall From Rim

By: Ice Hockey Systems

The first touch of the puck when retrieving the puck along the wall is key. In this clip Nyquist demonstrates the "Roll" technique.

What to Watch

• Nyquist goes to the spot where he know he can meet the puck and establish body position.
• Before the puck arrives he checks over his shoulder to scan the ice.
• He feels the pressure to his left and uses the momentum of the puck to roll off the wall to the right.
• Coming off the wall he immediately get his head up.
