I did these moves on my buddy who is in the NHL. After I burned him with all five moves he said to me, "That's not fair because all of those moves are impossible to defend against." This RUclips video changed my life.
Most players don't have tons of ice time to work on this stuff but you have UNLIMITED off-ice time. We want more players working on specific skill training off-ice and not using a lack of ice time as an excuse. So, it may be better demonstrated on the ice but that's not how it's intended to be used.
I am D, but I take the puck up a lot. Not only has this helped to make me a better d, but it has also helped me in my rushes. Maybe a video on how best to defend against these moves?
Nah, we'll stick with impossible. Just because you are watching the chest doesn't mean you will be able to defend it. These are drill designed to create time and space even when the defender is playing you correctly.
Agree fully with 247 Hockey. There's a great video of Darryl Belfry working with Patrick Kane where he says, "we're going to work on making a move from the defender's best possible position. If you can beat the D from his best possible decision, you can succeed with anything less optimal." These moves will create time and space.
Thanks for this video. I’m not a player but I’ve always wanted to understand more about the moves in the game . I had to actually slow the video down so I could catch everything. Thank you, this will help in my enjoyment of watching these athletes perform.
Great video! As a suggestion, you should film each move with the camera behind you. That way it will make it easier to understand the left / right lateral movement.
on #2 if you're quick enough you can pass the puck between your legs. Against a not quite mobile defenseman it usually works well. Even if they're quick they try to catch you and then you back off and you have a great angle for a pass
These, are really impossible to defend I play center so this is helpful, I always try to go through the legs and than sprint for the puck and try to get a break away but sometimes it doesn't work these deke strategy's really helped me thanks!
Try them for fun but if your friends are any good, they most likely won't work more than once or so. Basically, you're better off getting a real coach to explain stuff. There's a reason you only see the best danglers in the world (McDavid, Giroux, Kane, Gaudreau, and so on) able to do anything like these moves. They are what a coach will call a low percentage move. You're better off trying to get a shot passed them by changing your shot angle and always going for the open ice. And, if you do want to fake out a d, use your hips and shoulders more than puck movement. And good d will be watching your chest. Not the puck.
The offseason is almost here. How about more of your great off-ice training with rollerblades? For fitness, how about short intensive real-time circuit training workouts?
A lot of people seem interested in offseason training videos. Could you make a video that describes a good summer routine (including frequency and timing of training) and how to spread it out throughout the day?
As a defenceman, the 1st one won’t always work, especially on a good d, as he would wait to be in front of the body, same with the second, if you take too long, he could lay you out in open ice, but other than that it’s a good move, as you said, pokechecks are a thing so if his stick is in the way of yours, lift up your stick, this one, he can lay you out if you don’t get out of the way after.
I'm on Minnesota special Olympics floor hocky I used a move if my own a sudden side jump the defense had no chance and I scored easily also thanks for the good tips as fast as I run o doubt average players are going to have a chance
Love it. Zach do you have any tips on shooting under pressure. I have a good shot and good hands but I always end up gliding in the offensive zone and shooting on the D in front of me or directly in the goalie's belly!!! How can I practice shooting under pressure off the ice ?
Man ALL these drills are exactly for you. That's the point of this video to create time/space and shooting lanes! Work on these moves. Shoot quicker and use 5 pucks. All 5 pucks at one target then repeat that for all 4 targets and repeat that for each drill. There are no shortcuts brother you got to put the work in. I am GIVING you the recipe but I can't make the food for you.
Sometimes it's better to do a fake shot. Then move in and do a wrist shot, can do a fake slap shot, pull back a fake pass then a wrist shot or saucer shot.
I wish I can play hockey again It’s been 4-5 years how long do you think it’ll take to get good again or great and I was pretty good back then I hope you respond bro
Well this would be GREAT for me if my school used a puck for floor hockey but we just use a ball and the ball rolls on and on making it harder (for me)
I play d and I watch the chest. Especially with that last one I would easily maybe start to cheap for the fake but then I’d cross over and hip check the player as they attempted to pass. I’ve done it before and I’ll gladly do it again. It’s also easy to make a forward that’s not as aware do what I want by faking like I’m going to cut them off for example and then as soon as they try to cut in front I anticipate that and hit them or get a solid poke check and head the other way.
Love how all the D here are so positive they would defend these moves every time. I get it, it's easy to write down exactly how you would play the move. Different to actually do it.
I had a hockey game today, and I got the puck through the defenders stick, then there was another one, and I 360ed then passed and my friend did a one timer.
I feel like a 7 year old just forced me to watch his re-enactment of that time when he won the Stanley Cup. “Then I did this... scored” “Made him freeze up... scored” Defenseman cheated... thought I was going that way... went this way... scored” “Did ya just see that? No ya didn’t. Scored”
Can you plz delete this video(I am a defender)
hahaha
Lmao good video tho
lmfaoo
Then do what he is saying when you get the puck
defenders can learn a LOT from this video
I did these moves on my buddy who is in the NHL. After I burned him with all five moves he said to me, "That's not fair because all of those moves are impossible to defend against." This RUclips video changed my life.
I knew it
Bs
Daniel Abarjel BS is my initials, yes.
What the nhl player namr
Bill Smith you liar
I love when I come down the ice and the defense is a group of chairs
Right! It's the best.
LOL
@Silly Gamers I still wouldn’t get by them. 😉
Most defenders play like the chairs.
I actually move like a chair.....very real simulation
Thanks for lowkey helping me become a better defenseman.
*snicker*
I play in a deck hockey league where we play on foot. These tutorials are perfect. Thank you for filming them.
This will be better if demonstrated on ice. I like to see the skate position for each move.
Most players don't have tons of ice time to work on this stuff but you have UNLIMITED off-ice time. We want more players working on specific skill training off-ice and not using a lack of ice time as an excuse. So, it may be better demonstrated on the ice but that's not how it's intended to be used.
Yeah that would help a lot
It’d be nice, if possible, to do an on ice demo of each at the end of the video.
What happens if my opponent has a stick?
Tell him you only practice against chairs so that isn't fair!
247 Hockey noted
just pray they dont
Go to the store and get a hold of a. Stick
No
I am D, but I take the puck up a lot. Not only has this helped to make me a better d, but it has also helped me in my rushes. Maybe a video on how best to defend against these moves?
These are great.... I'd title it "HARD" to defend.... if the D is watching your chest instead of the puck, he can defend you....
19stalkern thank you buddy.
Nah, we'll stick with impossible. Just because you are watching the chest doesn't mean you will be able to defend it. These are drill designed to create time and space even when the defender is playing you correctly.
Thank for the feedback though.

I am a defender. I break wannabe superstars dreams.
Seb Crakpot I play as a defense men and play left wing either one I can play as
Same
Hahaha, that's awesome. However, defenders need to pay attention to this video and learn how to create offense when rushing the the puck.
lol
Noice me to m8 sometimes they try to fight me
Great video! As a suggestion, you should film each move with the camera behind you. That way it will make it easier to understand the left / right lateral movement.
thanks brother

If your not playing on ice i feel it helps to watch some basketball crossover drills and watch how they use theyre feet to confuse the defender
Definitely some good transition there.
thanks for the help i have been haveing trubal getting around the defence
Thanks a lot mate! I just watched your move, tried it the same night on ice and scored a beautiful goal. Thanks indeed !
Hey Zack, Great Video Tips! My young guy just absorbs this stuff! Thanks again Zack.
This is a great video, I will do these moves on my friends when we play hockey
Try them for fun but if your friends are any good, they most likely won't work more than once or so. Basically, you're better off getting a real coach to explain stuff.

And, if you do want to fake out a d, use your hips and shoulders more than puck movement. And good d will be watching your chest. Not the puck.
I play forward and found this video really helpful it would be cool if you guys made a part 2!!!!
These are amazing!! These help a lot
Awesome, more coming!
The offseason is almost here. How about more of your great off-ice training with rollerblades? For fitness, how about short intensive real-time circuit training workouts?
My Name i agree
That's for the suggestion, we'll get to work!

A lot of people seem interested in offseason training videos. Could you make a video that describes a good summer routine (including frequency and timing of training) and how to spread it out throughout the day?
GREAT video Zack! Can't wait to try these moves.
Let me know how it goes!
How to read a goalies positioning and exploit it
Dawson Hunt great ideas!
the fake shot lateral step shot... Mitch Marner does it very well on the power play. Great vid
Exactly! Keep practicing and master it!
I really appreciate your videos .
This is the start to my journey of making varsity in 2 months
Thank You Coach

Thanks for helping being a better defenseman bro
Smart
I wanna see you do these with skates on
How to keep good control of the puck
I'm on Minnesota special Olympics floor hocky I used a move if my own a sudden side jump the defense had no chance and I scored easily also thanks for the good tips as fast as I run o doubt average players are going to have a chance
To paraphrase the great Bruce Lee: chairs don't check back. :P lol. (good tips though)
Nice video a lot of information and I will use this to train thanks
Great!
Please make a video of how to learn to slide bottom hand an be comfortable and also I would appreciate a video of how to go through players.
I have. Use a Toilet Paper roll and hold on with your body hand. Watch my video where I talked about the good stickhandling drill.
im trying out for a AAA team and your videos are really helping me become better. Maybe you can make a video on kepping ypur head up in bantams thx
Luca Buonato I play triple A, and a tip is to always go as hard as you can. Good luck 👍🏻
nice video you help extremly to bring the skills on the next level hold on to make super videos👍👍👍
Evi Gasser that's right only if you train and use the drills daily!!!!
Very nice I’m going to try this on my next game
These might help me in my champs
I doubt there is any video on the youtube about efficiently delivering a body check or setting up bodychecks
I had a hat trick in my game thanks for the vid
How to defend these moves
Step 1 : absolutely send that forward to another universe with a bone crushing hit
Ur welcome
i'm Gabbi, im in ten u these are perfect for me and my team. thank you
I have played both offense and defense. Taking the body does trump these moves most of the time. But still very good to have these tricks in the bag.
That's true for ANY move. Problem is if you pull the move off the right way it makes playing the body very difficult.
Thank you for good tips! 😄
Thx improved so muck
The toe drag could be way better on fake shots one(1st move)
Please answer this question is this at the Burnsville Minnesota training center because I’ve been there multiple times it looks very familiar
Can you make the videos about training of endurance(specific and general)please?
I am the best stick handler on the team this just made me a little better thanks.
This works great thanks
Nice!
Love it. Zach do you have any tips on shooting under pressure. I have a good shot and good hands but I always end up gliding in the offensive zone and shooting on the D in front of me or directly in the goalie's belly!!! How can I practice shooting under pressure off the ice ?

This helped a lot thanks
What kind of puck is that?! Great vid!
what are some good moves for picking up puck bunnies at the bar after games?
I understand these are off-ice drills, but I would have liked to have seen these also demonstrated on skates in a rink.
Sorry, maybe next time.
I would really appreciate it THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO
You bet. Put it to good use.
could you do a video about quickness and speed
I've got a few on my channel.
Thanks this helped me last game I played
Coach does left handed stick handlers share the same moves? Also Thank you for the video it helps a lot
No they have a different puck
I wish I can play hockey again It’s been 4-5 years how long do you think it’ll take to get good again or great and I was pretty good back then I hope you respond bro
what's on the bottom of your stick? Is it a coating to help from wear while doing dryland?
these are the perfect stuff to help me shut down selfish fowards looking for a highlight reel tik tok.
thx
Great moves it helped me
hi can you give me tips to stop breakaways so the other team dose not score? thanks!!:3
how to keep the puck online with the net when trying to score a goal
Can I do this on the street...like street hockey??
Ray A. Get a street hockey ball and it should help
What kind of floor is that ?
What stick curve is that ?
“Plays the body clean, too bad the defender wasn’t mesmerized with those dangles.”
"Wonders when the next time you are in MN to prove it!" hahaha!
great video. really screws with the defender.
BOOM! Keep working!
Well this would be GREAT for me if my school used a puck for floor hockey but we just use a ball and the ball rolls on and on making it harder (for me)
I like this video
The first one is like bo horvats move/goal/dangle in gm 2 of 2020 playoffs
I play d and I watch the chest. Especially with that last one I would easily maybe start to cheap for the fake but then I’d cross over and hip check the player as they attempted to pass. I’ve done it before and I’ll gladly do it again.

I’m trying out for triple a next year. Any tips?
Make the team
3rd one looks is my favoutite
I had a hockey game today, and I got the puck through the defenders stick, then there was another one, and I 360ed then passed and my friend did a one timer.
Johnny dangles.
What's the puck ur using?
Green biscuit. Great puck for off ice stickhandling.
Kane drag would work better than a toe pull 😊
These are great I used the third and fifth in my game and they work really well
Nice, way to put it into action.
This video would be even better than it is now, if it was demonstrated on actual skates...
I just came into curiosity after many years, would these still work with checking( like bantam,midget,junior)
These work for Forwards in the NHL, their are hundreds of examples of NHL forward using these moves successfully.
maybe a vid for defenders? 👀
Can u do a video with Pavel barber
LEGENDARIest Legendary commentor barber is soft as fuck and can’t keep his head up
I feel like a 7 year old just forced me to watch his re-enactment of that time when he won the Stanley Cup.
“Then I did this... scored”
“Made him freeze up... scored”
Defenseman cheated... thought I was going that way... went this way... scored”
“Did ya just see that? No ya didn’t. Scored”
So confused on what you are trying to say but glad you felt like you were forced to watch the video. Hope it helped.
I play triple aaa hockey and this is easy to defend
Nice
Nice keep it up
idk how i sign in on 247 hockey.....
Can someone tell where Zac lives? In USA or Canada?
Nasty moves
Super nasty
Impossible to defende... You are so funny!!
The only person laughing is the forward that just roasted you after watching this video :)
