D man retrievals

First Shift Hockey on Instagram: "Loose pucks into scoring chances with @umdwhockey @mainewih @oswegowhockey . . Finding loose pucks in the slot and minimizing over handling before our release.

Warmup Edge work

Edge work at every session. Nice drill to warm up with. We are using each side of our blade and holding that edge, not a stop. Make a pass after and get those feet moving for a shot.
