Learn how to take a faceoff in Hockey. Washington Capitals Assistant Coach Dean Evason and Capitals players Dave Steckel and Boyd Gordon show you different ways to win the puck in a faceoff.
One very important thing that is missing from the tutorial is where should the Center's eyes be focused when the puck is dropped?

Speed and reaction time is just as important as everything else mentioned in the video.
