Tom,

I've noticed this skill become more important with the appropriately officiated game-ie. no clutching and grabbing.

The gifted player tends to face-up and make moves as opposed to cycling.

At our VGT camp this summer we'll be asking the players to perform evasive moves using only the forehand. This requires transitional skating maneuvers–Mohawks, T-pushes, shuffles, slides, etc.

BTW: Are you watching the World Cup? A lot of great tactics that can be modified for Hockey.

Cheers,

Paulie
