Coaching points
- First look is always the goal. Until the top man picks you up, keep coming and think only of shooting.
- Shoot only if he does not come. A 12-yard shot is the one the defense wants you to take, so if he gives you room, keep coming until he gets a piece of you: every yard closer is a better shot.
- Their answer: the triangle stays tight so any shot comes from far out and a low angle (Lax Goalie Rat), and the top man invites the long shot and goes for the gloves (Zimmerman and England).
