Goalie Drill – Shuffle Shot Breakaway – Hockey Resource

In this drill, the goalie practises the basics, stopping shots, shuffling, t-pushes and facing breakaways.

The goalie starts at one of his posts and t-pushes out to face a shot from the first shooter. He then follows the shooter that skates across the slot (X₃) by shuffling. When the goaltender gets to the second shooter he faces another shot. Immediately after stopping this shot, X₄ will leave the blue line on a breakaway which the goaltender must stop.

Note: X₄ should move towards one side of the net before shooting. 

Variations:

• X₃ can have a puck while moving across the slot and shoot on net if the goaltender is not in proper position.
