GETTING OPEN
Whether you are on a rush
or working around the net, getting open for a pass or
rebound is a necessary skill for goal scoring. Probably
the best player in the NHL for getting open is Brett Hull
of the Detroit Red Wings. He always manages to find the
open area. On a rush, there are times when you should bust
through to the net but at other times you should slide
into the slot. Around the net, it is much like a pass
receiver in football. You need to fake one way and then go
to the open area. Reading the play and getting open will
increase your scoring chances.
