In each of the above situations, it is very important to assess yourself accurately. What happens in this type of evaluation is that one generally takes an "overall" view of their game play and grade accordingly. For example: Item number 9 in defensive zone play…."do you force a whistle if in trouble". If you scored yourself a 3, let’s say, this number is derived from an average of game conditions. By this I mean that out of 5 times that you get yourself into trouble, you would freeze the puck 3 times. If you got yourself into trouble 10 times you would freeze the puck 6 times. Of course one’s definition of trouble may be varied as well. So most problems that occur relative to this situation usually come from either not recognizing when you are in trouble, from making a mental mistake or from not having the skill level to execute the proper skill adequately (not knowing one’s limitations – thinking that clearing the puck around the boards to the far side and over the blue-line when on one’s backhand will actually work). There are in essence, three separate reasons why a player makes a mistake.

1 – (U) Comprehension – not (U)nderstanding or knowing proper play selection, result of poor coaching or tactical training

2 – (M) Poor decision (mental) – did not see the ice well, a result of mental fatigue, thinking speed, etc.

3 – (S) Poor Skill – could not execute the proper fundamental to accomplish the task at hand; carried puck with head down, could not make the backhand play, etc.

The following then is a more complicated break down of you game assessment. Assess each situation accordingly and circle the appropriate number based on the definitions shown above. For example, if you scored a 3 in your previous assessment in "1. Angle opponents into corner in one on one situations" what was or were the primary contributing factor/s. 1-comprehension, 2-decision making or 3-skill level.

In this example skill level (poor skating skills, or strength) may be the primary factor why you would only be successful 3 out of 5 times. Don’t over analyze……keep it simple

Item No. 1 - Angle opponents into corner in one on one situations

Possible reasons for this option are:
1	Take away mid-ice (seam) scoring opportunities.
2	Play intimidation game - take opponent to wall for contact.
3	Force opposition player to make passing play - increase chance of breakdown.
4	Force player to shoot from outside position (low percentage shooting area).

Primary teaching point: The objective of defensive hockey is to take away high percentage scoring lanes or zones any way possible. In other words, get them out of the middle. Forcing player to outside creates the need for support in order to generate any successful offensive opportunity while limiting time and space to do so. CAN / DO YOU:

1	Possess strong backward skating skills?	X	V	G	F	P
2	Possess strong positioning skills to force player to outside?	X	V	G	F	P
3	Maintain good gap so as to "steer" player to outside?	X	V	G	F	P

Item No. 2 - Keep stick on ice at all times to deflect passes (unless tying up man)

Possible reasons for this option are:
1	Opposition uses the wide side of the ice.
2	Opposition utilizes a sagging defenseman.
3	Opposition utilizes back door option.
4	Rebound has come towards you and you need to react quickly.
5	Defenseman shooting low – on ice shots from the point.
6	Quick turn over and you may be a possible outlet.

Primary teaching point: Do not allow opposition any easy plays. A puck that has to be raised when passed is more liable to cause problems and create turnovers. Puck control is essential to successful offensive as is time to select options. CAN / DO YOU:

1	Maintain good skating fundamentals (agility) with stick on the ice?	X	V	G	F	P
2	Keep strong on your stick when intercepting hard shots or passes?	X	V	G	F	P
3	React quickly to puck movement?	X	V	G	F	P
4	Coordinate movement (left, right, forward, backwards) with both hands on stick?	X	V	G	F	P
5	– Know when to play the man and when to play the stick?	X	V	G	F	P
6	Possess read and react skills necessary to read possible options?	X	V	G	F	P

Item No. 3 - Position yourself so as to see puck and the man at the same time (when 3rd forward is in high position - covering your check)?

Possible reasons for this option are:
1	Opposition is in control of the puck.
2	You have been assigned man-on-man coverage (checking assignment).
3	You are responsible for zone coverage (any opposition player in your zone).
4	You must assume a strong defensive position due to game circumstances (opposition momentum, etc).
5	Opposition’s top goal scorer sets up in your zone.
6	Create possible turnover on opposition pass / read to create quick transition and catch opposition off guard.

Primary teaching point: This is perfect defensive zone coverage. Knowing where both the puck and man are allows you to eliminate opposition player in your zone from participating in any way in the play. CAN / DO YOU:

1	Play with your head on a swivel?	X	V	G	F	P
2	Anticipate the movement of your check?	X	V	G	F	P
3	Anticipate the movement of the puck?	X	V	G	F	P
4	Position yourself properly so as to be able to monitor both player and puck?	X	V	G	F	P
5	Possess the skating skills to do so?	X	V	G	F	P
6	Possess the strength to hold up the man if he drives to the net?	X	V	G	F	P

Item No. 4 - Tie up opponents stick

3	Opposition utilizes point shots with forwards driving to net for rebounds.
4	Opposition forward has superior offensive position on you.
5	Opposition player gets frustrated when tied up (takes attention away from attack).

Primary teaching point: It’s the stick that scores the goal. Too often player tie up the opposition player but leave stick free to tap in rebounds. Take away the most effective scoring tool and the opposition’s offensive attack is severely limited.. CAN / DO YOU:

1	Play with head on a swivel?	X	V	G	F	P
2	Know how to use your body, stick to tie up the opposition’s stick?	X	V	G	F	P
3	Know when to get involved with the opposition and when to leave him alone?	X	V	G	F	P

2	Opposition’s forwards are intimidated by physical play.
3	Opposition’s forwards try to crowd front of net for screen shots.
4	Goal-tender is vulnerable to screens (poor technical body position).
5	Goal-tender gives out rebounds.
6	Lost sight of the puck – take the man.
7	Draw penalties from offensive forwards who cannot handle rough play.
8	Set the tone – the crease is your team’s territory.
9	Interrupts mind set for players setting up to score – or shooting.

Primary teaching point: This allows not only the goal-tender to see all long shots but creates an environment where opposition players know that they are going to have to pay the price in order to score a goal. CAN / DO YOU:

1	Get intimidated in front of the net when opposition forwards play tough?	X	V	G	F	P
2	Possess the strength to be in front of the net (move out strong forwards)?	X	V	G	F	P

2	Have the strength necessary to hold up the man?	X	V	G	F	P
3	Play with head on a swivel?	X	V	G	F	P
4	Communicate well with your partner?	X	V	G	F	P
5	Read play well so that this option is the correct one?	X	V	G	F	P

Item No. 13 - Deny passes across slot on all superior situations (3/2, 2/1)

Possible reasons for this option are:
1	Opposition shooters are very skilled at one touch or one-time shooting.
2	Goal-tender is weak moving laterally.
3	May gain possess of puck which can be moved out of zone quickly for fast break.
4	Forces the opposition puck carrier to make alternate decisions which requires additional time.

Primary teaching point: Always make it difficult for the opposition to have an easy play to create an offensive opportunity. By denying or blocking passing lanes across the middle, it creates an environment where the opposition player must pass over one’s stick or body which creates a greater chance of a miss- handled puck on reception. As well, by eliminating the pass across the middle you force the opposition puck carrier to shoot from a low percentage scoring angle where a goal-tender has a greater opportunity to stop the puck. CAN / DO YOU:

1	Anticipate the puck carriers intentions?	X	V	G	F	P
2	Have patience to wait out the play and not commit early?	X	V	G	F	P
3	Communicate well with your goal-tender (shooter / receiver)?	X	V	G	F	P
4	Possess the flexibility and skating skills necessary to block passing lanes?	X	V	G	F	P
5	Sell the passing lane – make the puck carrier think that he can make the play successfully?	X	V	G	F	P
6	Do not "over focus" on your check but maintain head on a swivel?	X	V	G	F	P

Item No. 14 - Maintain goal-tender gap (do not back to far into zone on superior situations).

Possible reasons for this option are:
1	Goal-tender needs time to react – know where the shot is coming from.
2	Opposition shoots well through screens (through you on your goal-tender).
3	Opposition shooters attack the net well –take the lane if it is given.
4	Any broken plays are high in the zone which allow for greater space within which to react.
5	High zone turnovers create great transitional opportunities through the neutral zone.
6	High zone turnovers force offensive players to regroup outside in neutral zone.
7	Forces offensive players to angle their attack which allows back checking players to gain ice.

Primary teaching point: DO NOT SCREEN YOUR GOAL-TENDER or give the opposition shooter a higher percentage low slot shot. Most player are short range shooters. This takes away their strength. CAN / DO YOU:

1	Possess the skating skill necessary to force play early?	X	V	G	F	P
2	Communicate well with your partner (stepping up – switching, etc)?	X	V	G	F	P
3	Read or anticipate the pass or drive well?	X	V	G	F	P
4	Have the patience to wait out the play and not commit early?	X	V	G	F	P
5	Recognize shooter or offensive player preferences (offwing cut to middle, etc)?	X	V	G	F	P
6	Block passing lanes well?	X	V	G	F	P
7	Communicate with your goal-tender on odd man rush (2-1)?	X	V	G	F	P

Possible reasons for this option are:
1	Under high pressure forechecking system. Must get puck out.
2	No passing options available to puck carrier – yet under pressure.
3	Do not want to give up any plays up the middle.
4	Utilizing a high forward for a fast break.
5	Perhaps capitalize on point man’s weakness at handling or converting puck in this type of play.
6	Play is scrambly in zone – just get puck out – low risk.
7	Long shift – need line change.
8	Do not have the strength or technique to eat puck along the wall.
9	Opposition has momentum – slow things down.
10	Penalty killing – outlet play to outside – low risk.
11	Goal-tender or defense has lost his stick.

Primary teaching point: Puts the puck into a very unpredictable situation where the opposition’s defenseman is going to have to get puck under control first which is very difficult before attempting any sort of play. CAN / DO YOU:

1	Possess the skill forehand?	X	V	G	F	P
2	Possess the skill backhand?	X	V	G	F	P
3	Possess the knowledge of puck placement (where to hit on the wall or glass)?	X	V	G	F	P
4	Know when to use this option?	X	V	G	F	P
5	Possess the puck handling skills to do this under pressure?	X	V	G	F	P
6	Can you clear puck without icing it?	X	V	G	F	P
7	Know what to do in the event of a miss-attempt - man on man responsibilities in the event of a counter attack?	X	V	G	F	P

Item No. 16 - Aggressive with stick to keep opponents off balance.

Possible reasons for this option are:
1	Opposition player is in slot waiting for shot from point or corner - take mind of scoring attempt.
2	Opposition player is driving to the net.
3	Keep offensive player off balance so that he cannot react to puck movement down low.
4	Keeps puck carrier distracted – unable to shoot or pass properly.
5	Intimidation – trying to draw a penalty.
6	Try to gain an extra step on opponent.

Primary teaching point: By keeping the opponent off balance he will be unable to react to any passes, turnovers or rebounds. Doing this in effect creates more time and space for yourself and your team-mates. CAN / DO YOU:

1	Play aggressively?	X	V	G	F	P
2	Have good balance to leverage player with stick?	X	V	G	F	P
3	Possess the physical strength to hold up player?	X	V	G	F	P
4	Know where to apply leverage that best keeps player off balance?	X	V	G	F	P
5	Do you know when to use leveraging skills (waiting for opponent to make his move)?	X	V	G	F	P

Item No. 17 - Use partner intelligently in breakout (pass behind net or reverse.

Possible reasons for this option are:
1	Primary forechecker has a tight gap and is chasing you behind net.
2	Forecheck has isolated you to the corner.
3	You have drawn the puck back into your zone with forechecker in pursuit.
4	Long shot on net with you picking up the rebound with forechecker in pursuit.
5	Puck control to set of offensive transition option (stretch man).
6	Position puck better so as to capitalize on better passing lane.
