Slot Shot Drill

One of our quick drills highlighting the importance of challenging the shooter in the slot.  In this drill shooter 1 carries the puck from the corner, while shooter 2 moves around in the slot area. The goaltender must be aware of the slot player but also focused on the puck carrier.  The puck carrier can pass whenever he or she likes (simulating real game situations), goalie must react to make save.
