Your videos are awesome and so helpful. I have only been playing 3 years now, but you are my main resource for tips that give me confidence on the ice every Sunday. I can't thank you enough for sharing your knowledge. Cheers!
I'm brand ass new to hockey never played before and play LW and this video really helped me cus I got a game on tomorrow and dont wanna look dumb as hell so thank you m8
I have a tough time handling a break out from my D especially when they rim the puck off the boards. They never seem to make a tape to tape pass when I'm along the wall
I was always taught by a great coach in jrs to handle a rap around pass to face the boards not directly but at a angle with the blue line in sight, take your outside foot using the same angle press against the boards to stop the puck, by doing this the puck is controlled and not hitting your skate blade and usually flying in front of the net creating a scoring opportunity for the opposing team. When you stop the puck if you have room open up and make the pass to the center or bank off the boards around the defender. It took me a long time and I struggled doing it the way it is shown in the video. Hope this helps
Two possibilities to help you out here: 1) the puck is high on the boards - seal off the boards with your body and either control and pass/skate the puck if there is no pressure, or eat it if there is pressure. 2) the puck is on the ice - stagger your feet and put one heal against the boards, angling the blade in a way that allows for the puck to deflect to your stick, or if the timing is right and the pass is hard enough, the puck could simply redirected to a team mate that is swinging through. I use these techniques about 70% of the time that I am receiving a rimmed puck on a breakout. Hope that helps you.
Can you do a video of catching a long breakout pass? There are times when we have the opportunity to pass it up the rigth side from inside our own blueline to the right winger (me) who may be around center ice with speed. I'm never able to corral it and often at best just get a piece of it or at worst it goes down for icing. Tips?
Can that last one be used by a D-man trying to hold the puck in the offensive zone? I'm a right-handed shot playing right D. I had a hard pass back to the point very close to the wall hop my stick last week.

Thanks alot! ima be using that last one alot cause my D always rings it around the boards and its impossible to handle
thanks for the vids they really help
What if they hit you from behind constantly? Is there a way to avoid that other than letting them smash into you and hoping you can protect the puck?

Good comment! That's what I'm talkin' about!

Can you show the same break out with the player being a righty on Left Wing? Thanks
