Great New Video Up

We've been working a lot on the breakout lately and I just posted a great new video on the subject on the video page.  I would strongly urge you to check it out along with the homework video I posted yesterday.  Both are very important.

Player Homework!!

Keeping possession of the puck in the other team's zone is important so we can do two things:

1.  Get scoring chances on the other team's goalie
2.  Keep the puck away from our goalie.

In order to do that, one of the things we have talked about is cycling the puck in the offensive zone.  Please watch the video below to prepare for our practice on Friday 12/2.  If you would like to watch it in full screen, you can follow this link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnnV78zSpXk

Make sure you watch carefully!  This will definitely help you in practice!

New Video Page

I have posted a new Videos page that contains several good videos the kids should watch. They all have to do with various aspects of the game that we have or will be working on.  Since many kids are visual learners, it should be good for them to see it on film.  It may make more sense.  Enjoy.

Great Video for Forwards!

Here's a great video I found talking about a lot of the things we've been discussing over the last few weeks with the breakout.  In practice we were talking about opening up to provide a target and put yourself in position to move up ice. Pay close attention to the 1:30-2:00 section of the video.
