Pops, I think the player who just finished sitting in the penalty box has 3 options.
1. If the puck has been iced then either join the play or get to the players bench so the new player can get on with his linemates. This is more dificult the farther the box is from the bench.
2. If his team has the puck in the dzone then get open for a stretch pass.
3.If they have good control then hustle and become F1 low in the dzone because that is who is missing in most pk schemes. If a really aggressive pk is being used it may be the F3 position that needs to be covered.

I like nervous system overload activities like the two puck passing etc. to challenge the players brain and their body at the start of practice.. Even a game like baggo at each end where they only have the puck for 1" and can only shoot one timers.

Too bad you have no time for the Jasper camp.
