Caufield Cutting Hands on Net Drive

https://vimeo.com/852539330

Once a player has a step on the defender while driving to the net they need to take the defense's hands away by cutting to the inside. This takes away the angle where the defense can recover. If the offensive player uses their body to take away the defense's hands then they also eliminate the ability for the defense to go stick on puck.

What to Watch

  • As Caufield is entering the zone he is shoulder to should with the defender.
  • He keeps moving his feet so that he can gain the half step needed to take away the defender's angle to the net.
  • Once he knows he has the half step he cuts to the inside taking away the angle and the hands of the defender.
