Playing a forward who's moving laterally on his forehand ???
How do you guys handle a player who's on his forehand and moving out of the slot and into a more tight angled shot (i.e. the face off dot area.)
When he's on his backhand, I like to stay a little behind his movement and give him that outside angle shot, then shut the door real quick once he gets past a certain point, chances are his backhand's not gonna really give you any hard times anyway.
But how do you handle a guy drifting out wide when he's on his forehand. Do you guys let him get a little ahead to tempt him out of the slot area, or do you try to play him square? The forehand's a harder shot to handle from a wide angle because he's way more likely to put it up stairs on you.
Any advice?
