Well I'll try……
“A good hockey player plays where the puck is. A great hockey player plays where the puck is going to be.” – Wayne Gretzky

Some thoughts.

  • I think that most of the anticipation is done when you're without the puck.
    As you're without puck most of time in game.
  • The puck carrier can/has some controll over the time and space he/she has. So players 2, 3, 4, 5 try to anticipate the number one's actions.
  • The game is harder to read when you're number 5 than when you're number 2. Nuber just reacts to number one when number 5 reacts to number 1, 2, 3, 4.

So what helps.

  • 4.playing roles
  • numbering of the players
  • 0-1-2
  • and the prioritys of the game

It's a bit theoretic……. I'll post more later….
