Option 2

My favorite offensive play is a rather simple one that we run in warm-ups a lot, but that needs to be executed very clinically in order for it to work. Basically it revolves a lot around circling the puck in the corners and behind the net, using at least three if not four players at possible: With two of them in the corner itself and one floating between the far post and Gretzkys office, aka behind the net. These three players will try to cycle the puck as much as possible, maintaining possession and trying to tire the opposition. The two players in the corner will be set up right at the boards at both ends of the corner and they will try to rotate a lot both with and without the puck to create confusion and get the Defense moving, waiting for an opening. And then once they've got that cycle going and are rotating and rotating and rotating, suddenly they'll switch it up and instead of going for another rotation in the corner, the player higher up on the boards will pass the puck to his teammate and then will make a break for the middle, setting up a quick give-and-go and allowing them a shot from a great scoring position if everything works out.
