Abstract

This workcomes detail the objectives and principles that performance sportive must use in the offensive game. Athletes will have to apply these rules almost mandatory both in gamef ive to five and a bit of inferiority undeserved when required possession of the puck as extended, especially in the numerical superiority when seeking to create free spaces to could capitalize game goal, in numerical superiority.
All these objectives can be achieved only with a skating speed with possession of the puck as much with a team game involving all players in the attack, the protection of the puck as good and not least with as a movement of the puck.
When the puck is regained, look to create the opportunity to go back on offence. The transition game consists of both a quick counterattack and the composure to be patient when it is necessary to buy some time. Once puck possession is gained, keep it and do something with it. Embrace this philosophy of puck control - maintain a puck control game as much as possible.
Take advantage of what the opponent gives you - do not force plays. If the opposition has their defensemen standing up, chip the puck behind them and skate onto it. If the defensemen sag off from the blueline, attack the space in front of them.
