Could this drill also work with 3 players instead of 5? Like by having 3 forwards and have the center break it out then have them 3 other forwards forecheck them. This would allow us to work with the defense on other things as well.

@thekingcuber i wouldn't. it wouldn't be a real game simulation. for example, middle breakout wouldn't be an option if the center was the one initiating the breakout, the forecheckers wouldn't have to adjust to a possible d to d pass, the forecheckers wouldn't have d-men on the blueline to keep the puck in on certain forechecks... plus, it's a full ice drill, so where would you be working on other stuff with your d?

@weissie20 Thats a good point, i was going to cut the ice at the blue line and use one zone for something else, but what you said makes sense

Did you play for BYU? I was watching some BYU hockey videos and the announcer said Jeremy Weiss with 2 goals on the night.
