Ever wonder how some players have eyes on the back of their head? A quick look over your shoulder can help you make plays like this. ⁣⁣⁣

1. Locate the puck. ⁣⁣⁣
2. Scan the ice for open teammates and defenders BEFORE you get to the puck.⁣⁣⁣

Back hand pass is solid in the O Zone. Nothing bothers me more than when a player in the D or Neutral zone makes a lazy backhand pass, which ultimately ends up in the middle of the ice as a dangerous turnover. Put in the effort for a forehand pass or at least place a backhand off the boards.
