@@reubination that’s the problem with kids nowadays, all they know is “score score score”, teach em how to play hockey properly. That’s why the Russians were so good back in the day
@@cryptichex6943 my buddy's 11 year old only knows how to play offense and is a complete defensive liability. You're spot on about youth needing to learn to play hockey
Great play analysis and compilation - wish we had that when I played college and U-Montreal back in the sixties/seventies. It illustrates many techniques that are poorly described in hockey technical books including a few that are not listed. Could you please use as large as an image as possible - this is a small puck! Thank you again, I still play in a man's league, and found your reviews very useful, Ciao, U de Montreal 1976
This was good. I play beer-league hockey and try to learn things as I've never played as defense on a team that was coached. I shoot right, but sometimes play left D (weak side) so I can't drag or surround if I get the puck at the blue line. I find myself trying to get a shot off as fast as possible before their winger can block, or I just pass it down the boards to the left winger.
AAI6718 let me get help you. Playing left D as a right handed shot is not called weak side. You’re playing on your offside. Weak side refers to the side of the ice that the play isn’t on. Strong side = side of ice action is occurring Weak side = side of ice opposite of the action.
I just aged out of junior in BC and got super lucky and stepped in as assistant coach with the team I played for. This is probably the most in-depth analysis ive heard. Helps lots
Haven't had time yet but LA has been transitioning a right handed defensemen to the left defense. If you have a video on defenseman skills and needs playing their offside that would be of interest to me.
