This week Topher and Jeff fly solo to talk about how to play defense. A couple of weeks ago, we did an episode on how to score more goals, so now it’s time to talk about keeping pucks out of the net.

In this episode we talk about:

— Getting players to buy in to playing defensively

— The importance of communication & effort

— How defense is not just in the defensive zone

— How to take time and space away from really good players

AND SO MUCH MORE!
