I share my material such as the transition games that you refer to. I would like to read the discussion about them.

How have you used them? What adjustments have you made? How did the players adapt to them???? Do they seem to make a difference in the way your team plays in regulation games?

Tom , Dean,
Follow up from the conversation Tom that we had earlier today. I was just contacted from coach of the team that I have been doing practice's with. He wants to continue with the Transition games that I ran last practrice as i sad before that was an introduction for them. I suggested to him about only having Two colours and put some competition into this practice , now that they have an understanding of the games. It is a first step and hopefully it will continue. He likes what he has been seeing in the games this past weekend.
I plan on putting these stats together so I can post them at practice for the players to see. Show the importance keeping turnovers to a minimum if possible , and the importance of a good backcheck as a whole unit. NO fly by's do your job and play your role.

I heard a stat once about the percentage on a turnover at or a team failing to get the puck out within 5 ft of the blueline.
Have you guys heard of a stat like this.?
I can't seem to find it. Or maybe I think that I have heard such a stats.
