CREATIVE PROMPT:

Perhaps one of the best and most fun games to play to work on skills is the one on one puck drill. The coach dumps a puck to the corner where you go head to head on to compete for possession of the puck while also getting a chance to work on winning those battles before trying to make a play at the open net. Of course this drill can get tiresome quickly so instead there is another drill of 3v3 with the nets on each of the blue lines. It is a tight space battle for puck possession and keeps the goalies on their toes as the puck can be coming their way at any moment. It helps with team communication and again winning the battles to get quality chances at the net. But bar none the most fun that anyone has is scrimmage (with a twist) in this full ice 5v5 hockey every player must play with the opposite hand stick. If you are right handed you play left and visa versa. It is always fun to put everyone on an equal footing and seem them attempt to do thing completely different then what they are used to.
