Pressure v. Contain 1 on 1 Good drill from the PIJE drill collection over at DrillDraw Pressure v. Contain 1 on 1: 1. Form groups of two around the rink. 2. In each group, there is one forward (carrier) and one defense (forechecker). 3. The forechecker tries to prevent the carrier to move toward the center: A) the forward does not have control of the puck (pressure situation), then, B) the carrier has full control of the puck (contain situation). 4. Reverse the roles for each sequence. USE THIS DRILL IN YOUR OWN PRACTICE PLAN:
