Oh I meant the 2 on 1's in the battles. Say you've got a 50 / 50 battle on the boards ( a 1 on 1) with the center in a support position. Do you encourage the center to jump in at times to create a temporary 2 on 1 for a chance to gain possession?
Great video, and great series. I'll be sharing for sure. How do you feel about temporary 2 on 1's in the defensive zone? (When would you say a centreman should jump in)
I'm typically a fan of allowing centers to be more aggressive down low and ensuring the weak-side wing is in a support position in the high-slot. This will minimize the number of 2 on 1's that happen down low. A slight adjustment of the strong-side wing will let you handle the point relatively effectively.
Oh - yes, I do. I would rather have my players make an aggressive mistake than a passive one. There are of course specific ways to teach to go into those battles with a higher likelihood of success. Then video review can always show them whether or not they made the right read.

this is excellent centerman advice! Im a fan of good 2-way centerman. Its the hardest position for skaters.
As a complete noob to the sport I'm finding these vids EXTREMELY helpful. TY
I feel the same way!

Hi Coach
Great explanation homie! Needed this a ton!

Thank you. Great video!
Love the part about communication. So many high school guys act like their in a library on the ice. Communication is so key.

And now you know why Peter Forsberg was so hard to contain down low.
