Cliffhanger Shooting
"Cliffhanger Shooting", has players receive passes while skating, and forces them to control the puck and quick release shoot. A player from either side begins and skates up and around the cone without a puck and receives a pass from the opposite line. Once the shot is taken the players allow the goaltender to re-set prior to the other side beginning.
