2 v 1 Defensive Read the Rush KHL 2010-11

Keith McAdams Coaching Tips: 2 v 1 Defensive Read the Rush KHL 2010-11


2 v 1 Defensive Read the Rush KHL 2010-11






2 v 1 Defensive Read the Rush:

  • Good body & stick positioning 
  • Quick sticks & anticipation 
  • Stick well out in front of you, ready to deflect pass 
  • The 'D' should keep a tight gap
  • The 'D' should keep the puck wide
  • The  'D'  must  skate backwards and stay in the middle of the ice
  • Stay between the two forwards 
  • If a pass is made back to the slot, the 'D' must pressure and attack the slot 
  • Goalie should call I have the shooter

Notes:   

In higher leagues, you can not just automatically let the player shoot. The players shoot the puck to good these days. Defense need to learn to improvise by;
  • Block shots
  • Block passing lanes
  • Develop fake stick checks and body checks
  • Develop instincts when to pressure
  • Scout the other team - Know who you want  and who you don't want to let shoot.
