    C3 – 2-1 with Regroup – Major Junior U20

    Key Points:
    Pass hard and face the puck giving a good target. D pivot when they get the regroup pass. This sequence can be done in all situations from a 1-1 to a 3-2. It is probably the most common pro drill I have seen around the world.

    Description:
    1. F1 and F2 leave from both sides and regroup with the far D.
    2. D1 pivot and pass to the forward while skating.
    3. F1 pass across to the other F2 in the Nzone.
    4. F’s regroup with the D2 at the other blue line.
    5. D2 pivot and make a pass to F1.
    6. F1 pass across to F2.
    7. F’s attack 2-1 vs. D1.
    8. Players leave from the other blueline and start the sequence again regrouping with D2. D3 join the play at the far blue line.

    Mike Johnston on the benefits of SAG's in practice.

    Mike gave a presentation on SAG's to coaches in Vienna. At the end he summed up with his thoughts on the importance of using games in practice for skill, intensity, transition etc.

    https://www.hockeycoachingabcs.com/videos/watch/d-mike-johnston-benefits-of-small-area-games/

    I coached against Mike in the ACAC college league for 4 years in the mid 80's. He was an asst. coach with the U of Calgary in 89 doing his coaching masters degree. I wasn't coaching at the time and he suggested to Willy Desjardins that he add me to the staff. I was there for 8 seasons. Mike went on to coach the U of New Brunswick and then the Canadian Men's National Team. He then spent many years as the asst coach for Mark Crawford in various teams. He now is the head coach and GM of the Major Jr. Portland Winter Hawks. Mike is an excellent presentor at coaching seminars.

    In the next week I will post the various SAG's he demonstrated. It was in Vienna with Austrian players so sometimes they have a little trouble at the start of the games because of the language.

    Mike moved on to be head coach of Pittsburg for two seasons and is now back in Portland.
