Trimble’s Drill of the Week- Forward & Defenseman Activation Warmup
- Forwards in the Corners and Defenseman at the Blueline (use both ends of ice if possible)
- 3 Pucks in use
- First pass from the Forward to the Defense at Blueline is a long low to high pass – Forward goes to the net- D walks and shoots
- Second pass for the Forward to the Defense at the Blueline is a long low to high pass- D walks – Forward follows up high, and D dishes back to the forward for a shot from atop the circles
- Third pass for the Forward to the Defense at the Blueline is an exchange. D activates down the wall as forward drops it to him (stress puck protection on the placement of the puck and communication)- then forward joins making it a quick 2 on 0
- Have fun- Shoot- and Communicate!
