Defensive Zone Faceoff

Defensive Zone Faceoff

On a Faceoff Win

  • Center wins draw to D & ties up player
  • Left And right wings angle hard for the neutral zone
  • Right defence banks puck for left defence
  • Left defence either:
    • fires puck up the middle for right winger
    • hits left winger
    • hits centre down low
What if the weak side isn’t available?

If the weak side is taken away, D should chip puck into neutral zone with wingers driving hard

On a Faceoff Loss

On a Faceoff loss, we play man to man until we can re-establish our zone defence.
