Depth Charger
"Depth Charger", creates a new look and perspective for the players. The coach spots a puck into the zone. Teams play 2vs 2 or 3vs3 and attack the opposition goal while defending their own. On the whistle, a new puck is put into play and players active in the drill hustle to the end of their lines. Utilizing the net to create time and space is a very effective tactic. Goaltenders are very challenged in this drill as many of the attacks are initiated behind the net.
Teaching Points
Offensive: Use the nets and the different configurations to create time and space. Pass the puck to your goaltender. Defensive: Three 1vs1's, mobility and pivots to maneuver around the nets. Transition to offense quickly.
