And sometimes there are moments where you’re crossing through the middle of the ice and it feels like everyone is stopped. You may feel slow but in the end just keep skating. Don’t panic and pass the puck. Just skate.
Using this all the time as a D, either rushing the puck or starting a breakout; the momentum you pick up easily allows you to skate around the first defensive player like nothing. Any reason not to go with full crosses instead of the initial shuffle?
To slow that down is to hit it or at lease take the proper angle to break up part of his momentum.Great illustration of how fast d men in the nhl go coast to coast.Saw Bobby Orr do that all the time and be back on defense in his proper position.👍

Shuffle gives you more control allowing you to scan the ice and make a move
Its also easier to pick up a puck in a shuffle

Great comments here but yes all of the above. Also better to take contact on two feet than one and the shuffle is a great puck protect mechanic.
Any tips for a weak knob side anchor and soft drag?
