Re-introducing the Honeybaked Gold Standard teaching series where we will be breaking down the habits and skills applied by the best hockey players in the world.
Ivan Demidov’s first NHL point is a great example of applying foundational habits to make a highlight reel play.
- head check and scan immediately upon puck retrieval
- gets off the wall and takes the given/open ice
- wide base allows him to weight shift and freeze the defender
- under-handles the puck into protection at his hip
- eyes up allowing him to read defenders and find his F3
Stay tuned for more teaching content coming soon!
