This drill runs out of both ends at the same time.

• Place four equal lines of forwards at the blue lines.
• Opposite lines have pucks with coach as shown in diagram.
• Place pucks at opposite corners.
• Two lines of defense in opposite corners as shown in diagram.

Execution

• D1 skates forward to the dot, transitions backwards, pivots, and retrieves the puck behind the net.
• F1 skates down the wall into breakout position receives a pass from D1 and give a pass right back to D1.
• D1 receives the puck back from F1 and makes a stretch pass to F2 in the neutral zone.
• F2 takes a shot on net, stops for any rebound, and then skates to the corner to retrieve puck #2.
• F2 carries puck up wall and makes a back door pass to F1 as they drive the net.
• F1 stop in front after receiving pass from F2 and then goes to retreive puck #3 from the corner.
