Drill of the Week- Developing your shot release, changing your angle off the ice.
Simple set up- Stick or obstacle about 16 inches away from the shooters feet, with pucks positioned on the other side of the stick or obstacle across from the players body.
Player will handle the puck near their feet and then pull the puck away from their body, around the stick and shoot the puck on the same side of their body.
This simple drill develops balance while shooting, works on a players ability to change the angle of their release, and forces the player to snap the puck towards their target.
Excellent yet simple shooting drill for players to try at home or in quiet time at the rink.
