Staggered PP Set-Up To Create Passing Lanes

https://vimeo.com/842254817?share=copy

Here are two clips to show how you can create passing lanes on the PP by staggering your players.

What to Watch

The bumper is not in line with the puck carrier of the player on the backside
This drags the middle defender up or down creating the seam

Most teams are penalty killing by having their middle forward cover the bumper while also trying to have that player with their stick as much in the cross-ice pass lane as they can. By bringing the bumper up or down...that defender cannot do both jobs.
