Half-ice diagram of Low-to-High D Shot. The forward curls at the dot, passes up the wall to the defence, the defence shoots, and the forward drives the net.

Coaching points

How it runs

  1. Forwards line up just outside the blue line with pucks. One defence stands inside the blue line, on the boards side of the entry.
  2. Carry the puck over the blue line and drive toward the faceoff dot.
  3. At the dot, curl toward the boards so you are looking back up the wall.
  4. Pass low-to-high, up the boards, to the defence.
  5. The defence catches and shoots. Drive to the front of the net for a tip or a rebound.
  6. Leave the net and return to the back of the line. The next forward goes.
