Never was a center, played wing my whole life until a buddy of mine kept asking me to take face offs during a game. Always come back to this video after I lose a few. Even wingers need practice with face offs, you just never know. Thanks for the great tips, Jeremy!
Thanks for the help I have won alot more face offs
I've never won a faceoff in my life. I watched your vid and last night I was two for two. Thanks for the help.
Nice but if you have never won a face off why would they have you taking any
@@jackgotie6401 your a little late bud 😂😂
@@masonchapmon8196 about 7 years to late. lol
Yeah right
@@clashwithbot5461 bros prolly pro now
I'm a beginner level player, but in a recent game, I took a shot right off an offensive faceoff and scored, and I'm never going to stop bragging about it :P
My first goal was won the faceoff when through one shot from blue line shortside blocker
My first goal was as a defencemen when i got pissed at the wings and shot the puck from the blue and it went from his blocker to the crosbar and in
Same
Dude I’d never stop bragging either!
Bruh😂
I've been a defensemen for 7 years now and I'm thinking about switching to center
(I'm playing center at my game later so I'm kinda scared) but this really helped so thanks
Why am I even watching this? I'm a defence
same😂
+jasonvalinxti im a goalie
+Adrian Brown if all your 3 forwards get waved out of the faceoff, you'll be glad you did!
same lpl
It will help
3:03 ive done that in our own end cuz we had a special play and it went in our own goal
Nice

I always watch the puck coming out of the refs hand and react immediately. I see a lot of people just stare at the dot waiting for the puck to hit it. You're too late if you are reacting when the puck is hitting the ice.
Facts
Exactly what I was thinking, and I always show my players that. This was the first lesson I ever learned taking faceoffs.
I played my first pre-season game the other day and was my first time being a center and I won all of my face offs and won the game 16-0! Thank you
Thanks for the help! I can't wait to give it a try, I'll have to perfect it in floor/road hockey till ice time again though haha
Love the videos man, I just switched to center because no one else likes to play it but I love it, so much more freedom on the ice and you're the "go to" guy. I read your article on your main website and can't thank you enough Jeremy, I'm still working on my faceoffs but you've helped point me in the right direction. The transition I've made from last year has gotten my coaches attention and he likes throwing me out there in key moments, so thanks again and keep it going :)
Been centerman since i started hockey when i was about three or four years old and i don’t tryout but next year I’m trying out for the first one in 5 years and i almost always win because I’m one of the better players in rec and I’m trying to increase reflexes to help win against better players next year
This is my favourite UA-cam video period. It seems to have taken me from 35% to 70%. Every few months, I begin to struggle, watch this video again, and fix the problem immediately.
First time playing center last week and used some of these tips and had a blast. Watching this video again before our game tonight
Spending some with my Son working on face-offs. We enjoy your channel. He is 9 and we hope to start full ice as soon as the lockdown is over in Ontario. So much to learn in a short time now.
amazing! can't wait to try those tips!
PERFECT TIMING!!! i was just going to search faceoffs and saw you put up a new video!!!! THANKS!!! :D
thank you, this video helped me so much with winning face offs!
Wooo great tips. ..I'll try them tonight
Thanks I play roller and I'm a new center for the injured one and I'm getting so good all your tips work
yessss!!!!!!!!! Thanks man! I now am starting to play center so this is great!!!
So I took these tips and applied them in my rec league last week - proud to report that I won about 75% - 80% of the drops =) Thanks again for your time and effort on these videos!
Thank you for your work my friend...
great tips! Look forward to using them tonight!! Thanks. :)
This is a great video. Thanks man
This is by far the best tips video on youtube for faceoffs. Thanks a lot!
thank you because of you my season was a sucess!! Thx
Nice job, thanks for the tips
Great vid, helps a lot , thanx!
Great video! Great tips!!!
THANKS ALOT JEREMY YOU LEARN ME ANYTHIG ABOUT HOCKEY AND NEXT WINTER I WILL START PLAY HOCKEY AS OFFENS
Wow this helped alot! Thanks!
Yeah I play center too I love this video it helped me alot
Great video very helpful.
good tips! I'm going to try adjusting my stance to the side I want to win it to from now on. I've always lined up center to the puck!
Until this year I've never focused on face offs and this video helped. Thanks
Nice tips i play 15 years center and yeah after its all about reaction
@deadlyelwood Don Lough arena in Huntsville, is Sunday the over 35 league?
Great advice! 👍
THANKS!!!
Alright now here's a question that I have, I am also a center men for my team and I seem to have an issue with getting that opposing center tied up right off the draw. I normally do win the face off but he seems to get through quite often. How can I interfere with his movement without getting called?
Awesome tips! I play left wing but I thought I could use these for when the center gets thrown out the dot.
great video. i play center every now and then, and i have never been very good at taking the faceoff. i did what they said, and i got great results
Thanks Jeremy
Another great video as usual.
You should have a regular TV show for beginners like me
thanks this helps a lot
Awesome. So helpful :)
nice video! i need this
Thanks for the tips im my teams capton and I will use these tips
something that has been helping me win a ton of faceoffs is going for the body, then turning around and so i have full possesion of the puck and have the centermen behind for so i can hit it back to the defensemen/wingman.
Amazing Info Coach thank you.
No Problem Donald! Thanks for your support as a member :)
Thanks. Helpful video.
thanks jeremy that really helped can you go back to some tutorials
ty, very good video
Keeping your eye on the puck/ball is key to winning draws.
I might just use some of these tommorow night!
This works I one my first three straight face offs after I watched this
I played a lot of hockey in my younger years, and was quite good at winning faceoffs. I liked a lot of the techniques you have shown. Maybe you are just assuming everyone knows this, but there is something you have not shown and I think is the most important thing in winning faceoffs. The first lesson I ever learned in taking faceoffs is to always keep your eye on the puck in the referees hand. Every ref will drop the puck differently and with different speed. If your not watching the puck and just watching the ice, all you're doing is guessing when the puck is coming down. Watch the puck and your winning % will improve with it.
I used to put tape 1/2 way down my stick for top hand on faceoffs (HS in WI). This is the first time I've ever seen anyone else put tape down low for faceoffs!
I was wondering if you have a video on faceoff when the center ties up the opposing faceoff opponent when they lift their stick
This video helps
hey jarmy , I used your tips and went to my game the same night , I lost onily 5 face offs , scored a goail , and we won 7-3 , you have changed my game , thanx
Taylor Russell next, take grammer lessons my dude
This is really helpful i recommend this for people who play face off like me
@jdilla21 If you are going high you from a distance you need to roll your wrists over more to keep the toe of the blade pointed down, you should also follow through lower. If you follow through high it goes high, follow through low it goes low. Rolling the wrists helps keep the puck down.
thanks now i can win every faceoff.
I love how people turn that bottom hand over. You've just told me exactly what you're going to do.
I was a brand new center for a JV team with only 9 players. I was forced into the position and lost every face off. I watched this video and won 80% of my face offs, thanks
Excellent faceoff tips.
can u make a raparound video plz i love ur vids
4:37 Kens just standing there lookin' at the ground
Drinking game:
Drink a shot every time he says "nice 'n' low"
13 times nice and low
@hockeysnipes91 Wow, eagle eyes here... haha. Yeah I broke the other one and sent an email to the promo company just to let them know how it broke. The guy said he had an extra right handed in his office and he sent it to me. I like the Hall curve a lot better
Hi dude you are literally great :)
thanks for the tips. question, what if you are smaller and weaker than the other centerman? I have trouble muscling my way in and/or i get my stick whacked out of play. thanks!
Hey Jeremy, I just started hockey (And skating in general!) And Im pretty embarrassed because In the faceoff circle (I play right wing), I lurch in and I start moving in slowly, If you have anything to help that would be nice! Also, Do you know anyway for me to get better? Practice practice practice right? Thanks!
Could you do a video on how to shoot the puck high because Im having a bit of trouble figuring out how to shoot it up higher
Get a stick that has a more open blade face.
Here is a good video I did
How to Lift the Puck and Improve accuracy
new rs? it was a getzlaf curve and now a hall... btw nice vid
When I was younger there was this kid who kept spearing me and giving me a cup check on the face offs. I was so mad, so I rented the movie face off to get ideas. Well, turns out that movie has nothing to do with hockey, but did give me ideas, so I cut his moms brakes to her mini van, she crashed into a tree. I cut her face off and put it on mine, went to his house as his mom and grounded him. Only for about two weeks though, because I got over it, and turns out he was a good kid, fast forward to 12 years later and he just graduated med school, I couldn’t be more proud of him. I guess you can say, we both won that final face off. His father and I are so proud of him.
anyone notice he has two different color laces
Dr Wiggle21 Productions me
Yes, the only reason I looked at the comments was to see if anybody noticed.
thats how he knows which is his left skate.
Ok ?
You're supposed to be watching the puck on faceoffs, not the skate lace colour! Heheh
@deadlyelwood I coach Wednesday at 5:30 or 6:30 (depending on the month), I've seen you guys play the odd time, it's always the same two teams playing.
I’m a center on my team I play center the whole game what do I do when I get tired and I have a. Face off to prepare for
I got the stealth because of your recommendation I like it but it's kinda of bouncing when receiving passes/shooting. I had it for 3 days and broke it off a 1t. I got another one, I'm no using to shooting with a bouncing stick I want a better slap shot, any hints?
Hi Jeremy,
I love your videos, I and my son Vitalii watch them all the time. I am pretty sure there a lot of young players watching them too. Could you talk little slower on your next video? :)
@WBFollower Good for you. You must be a top prospect now. Not everyone starts playing hockey in squirts.
Mainly 75 % Reaction and then power can be a factor
@howtohockeydotcom Jeremy could you help me with my shot problem? the problem isnt my shot, i can shoot pretty well when im close and even from the bottom of the circle or the hash marks. the problem occurs when i try and shoot my wrist shot from the top of the circle, when i go back i cant get any accuracy every shot just goes way over the net! any help?
Nice j clips
@howtohockeydotcom, I have a problem with my wristshot, on my shooting pad i can snipe top shelf but on the ice i can not lift the puck more than 1 foot. There also is not a lot of power. I have also heard that you should "punch" your bottom hand down on the stick to make it flex. please help
Can you explain the rules of face-offs to a few of us beginners? I see a few face-off scrums and guys getting kicked out. Can you explain what happens and why, what you're allowed to do and not? Thanks.
is it foul or not when going for the other player stick i mean at video straming 4:41 seconds
How To Hockey Hey this is kind of off topic, but im learning to play hockey and im pretty quick and picking up stick handling just after a couple practices, but i can't hockey stop and its killing me. Would it be a wise idea as my blades are wearing down, to practice stopping with dull blades before i get them re-sharpened?
I had the same problem when I started, just keep practicing and remember to use your inside edge you'll get it
No just practice slowing down before you stop
I used to win every face-off but after a wrist injury I can't even win 1. My coach is considering putting me on the wing but I've played center my whole life so hopefully this helps
Are they In Canada because the boards say muskoka
I subscribed
same
what if they both try to tie each other up would both their defensemen com in and face-off again
The Defence will get it
Nice gloves
No the puck has to touch the ice first before you can touch it. After the puck touches the ice you can win it however you want. You can even win it with your hand if you are in your own end (defensive zone), but not in the offensive zone.
With your hand !?
This helps me because I’m a center
Tell nasher that I like his videos
Took my first face off as a winger and I got demolished. This video really helped
I play ice and dek hockey and if u dont know what it is it's just a street hockey league with rules and can't win the face offs like when I'm on the ice because I usually spin around and kick there stick please help
one time in novice I was playing center and got 3 goals in about 10 seconds just by poking it through the other guys legs and going down and scoring, three times in a row i did that.
Mainly you are suppose to back up your defense and right w ith yours winges
Im learning! I'm a kid
