Most players get this puck and stay on the wall. That’s often a mistake. In this drill, we’re training the ability to get off the wall immediately and attack the middle — where plays are made. Key details: - Clean rimmed pickup off the wall - Open up instantly — don’t continue up or down the wall - Attack middle ice with purpose - Sell a quick fake (here: right → left under the stick) - One-touch pass out of the corner (after 1st shot) - Get to ope. space and finish with a one-timer Focus less on the finish — focus on: 👉 Clean retrieval 👉 Fast separation from the wall 👉 Deception under pressure That’s what translates.
