🚨 Catch & Shoot in Stride = Game Changer 🚨 Too many players stop their momentum when receiving a pass… ❌ At the elite level, that split-second kills scoring chances. Here’s the key: 🏒 Catch the puck clean on your forehand while standing still. ⚡ Explode right away into stride after the catch—no wasted motion. 🧠 Use underhandling (less puck touches) to stay deceptive and keep your speed. 🎯 Release the puck in stride—before defenders or goalies can reset. ✅ Why it matters: Players who can catch-and-release in stride create higher-percentage scoring chances and become dangerous threats every time they touch the puck. #HockeySkills #CatchAndShoot #InStride #Underhandling #HockeyTraining #hockeydevelopment
