B Checking from the Defensive Side – Sw

Key Points:

In game playing roles 3 and 4 the player checking the puck carrier and players covering away from the puck always stays between the player and the net . Body on body and stick on the puck is the key concept.

Description:
1. When angling approach at the inside back shoulder then make contact.
2. In the corner approach under control to contain and then make contact.
3. Defend a 2 on 1 from the middle with the stick in the passing lane, Give the goalie the shooter if he is at a bad angle and deny cross pass.
4. Switch if a player goes behind the net with good puck control and no pressure.
