PRO HOCKEY TRAINING: Advanced Wall Play

Показать описание

This video takes a look at some advanced wall play and how to bump the puck into good spots.

What does the term "wall play" mean? It means any plays along the boards, whether it's a puck coming around on a rim, making a pass off the boards, or any tie-ups on the boards.

This video explains how to quickly get the puck off the boards on a rim or a pass to avoid getting caught on the boards.

Players often get caught in situations where their back is to the play or they're off to the side and they get stuck on the boards. Just getting comfortable tapping that puck off the wall and making a play and getting that technique is simple - keeping our top hand up, keeping that blade flat on the ice and our blade cupped.
