This goal of this drill is to get the defensemen working on their backward to forward pivot and making a good first breakout pass. As simple as this drill looks, make sure the p[layers are doing it right. When picking up the puck from the corner, they need to keep their feet moving and gain the far post. When turning up ice, they need to stay within the face off dots, make the pass, and continue up ice as fast as possible. Don't overestimate how effective this drill can be when executed over and over. The faster the defense can do this drill the less time you can expect to spend in your defensive zone.
