    Power Play

    USA Hockey
    Level 3 CEP Clinic
    Brian Johnson
    Concepts
     “Out Support” the penalty killers
     Create numerical advantages on any loose
    puck and at the point of attack
     Move the puck and move yourself away
    from pressure
     Create time and space for better decisions
     Force the penalty killers to move and adjust
    Concepts
     Shots require a screen
     The goal of our power play attack is to have a
    realistic opportunity to create a screen on
    each shot
     The player must be willing to screen the
    goalie and pay the price (take away the eyes)
     90% of goals involve a screen
    Concepts
     Isolate and attack the seams of a defense
     The goal is to get the puck to the prime
    scoring area through the “seams” of the box
     When a seam is opened, threaten by taking
    “open ice”
    Concepts
     Be patient and poised
     Avoid forcing play
     possessing the puck puts pressure on the penalty
    killers
     Force the killers to continually adjust
     every adjustment produces a potential breakdown
    Concepts
     Mental toughness and discipline are
    crucial
     Prepare to match the work ethic and intensity
    of the penalty killers
     Be committed to the tactics, concepts and
    systems we choose to use
    Concepts
     A good power play serves as an
    enforcement tool, as a means of
    intimidation and as a deterrent
     Ifthe opposing team is afraid to take a
    penalty, the game has changed in our favor
     Teams can’t afford to take dumb penalties
    against a good power play
    Concepts
     Stay with your forehand
     Allpasses should be made from the forehand
     Be in position to catch all passes on the
    forehand
     Consider how you position players so that
    each one is on the forehand side with the
    possibility of a one-timer
