Practice Habits Every drill at top speed unless asked to do otherwise Hard in to the board and hard out to the next task Shoot to score every time you shoot Follow through for rebounds where appropriate. Look for opportunities to finish another's rebound after your turn has ended. Jump out through middle initially, then back to the line after your repetition has ended. Be on time for practice Compete at game-intensity ALWAYS - Push yourself and your teammates and expect to be pushed. Play the same puck you started with. If it will take time for you to regain it such that it may hold back the drill, your turn is done. Finish hard to the net without the puck where necessary and then jump out. Make hard passes in-stride where appropriate. Pass like the pros! Finish EVERY drill to completion (goal, goalie covers puck, puck out of play) or until the whistle goes. Be on time for practice where possible. Get busy with purpose upon stepping on the ice.
