Hockey Plays and Strategies [Ryan Walter, Mike Johnston] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Hockey Plays and Strategies

Review: Best hockey book available - I have to agree with the other 2 reviewers. I have read practically every hockey coaching/drill book and watched nearly every video out there, and this one is in a class all by itself. This book has plenty of diagrams, but also the detailed explanation that is lacking in drill books. Other books tell you how to run the drill. This book does that too, but also focuses on the subtler teaching points. This book explains what you are trying to do (e.g. having the second forward drive in hard splitting the defenders and isolating one to create a 2-on-1) and why it works. I wish I would have had this book 10 years ago.
Review: This book is amazing! We have been using it with our two ... - This book is amazing! We have been using it with our two youth hockey players over the past couple of weeks as part of their day-off ice training. Both players are starting to recognize developing plays and situations on the ice, and are reacting better. Albeit, this book will not make them the next Crosby, it is helping them to learn various plays when in the offensive and defensive zones. This is helping them get "hockey smart", and by being able to read the developing plays, they are making better choices on the ice! I will be eager to see what their individual "playing levels" look like in a month or two, and compare the differences. A well written book, plenty of play diagrams, and explanations are easy to understand. A great off-ice training guide, to get hockey players to "think" about the game.

This book is amazing! We have been using it with our two youth hockey players over the past couple of weeks as part of their day-off ice training.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great intro for novice players.
*by J***. on August 24, 2015*

I picked this book up as someone who is just getting into adult recreational league hockey. Having been a fan of the NHL for the past 20 years, most of the terminology was familiar to me, but the book should be quite approachable for anyone. Even if you have no plans in coaching, I think you can benefit from the concepts and ideas which will provide you with a general overview of how hockey players are distributed and their offensive/defensive roles. In my experience, drop-in and novice league play aren't the most organized, but you can make your game more efficient by knowing general strategies in different situations.
