Translations needed

[RyGuy]

I'd like some help from the French speaking Canadians on the board with a minor issue.

I've got a new defenseman on my team who is a native of Quebec. His English is pretty decent, but I'm pretty sure he's translating in his head whenever I talk to him. This is especially evident when I'm giving him directions during a play.

I took French classes (many years ago) so my pronunciation should be good enough, but it's the vernacular I want to get right. I have a few key phrases that I use during the game that I want help with.

Here goes:

• Man on
• Skate with it
• Up the boards
• Screen
• Take the shooter
• Let it through
• Nice goal
• Nice shot

Thanks guys!

Just to cut it back a little use
skate and boards, instead of what you have on list.
As far as nice goal or nice shot...beauty

[LeGardienDeBut1]

le tir et le but - the shot and the goal or pretty much "he shoots he scores"
watch RDS, you'll pick it up. ( i moved from Laval when i was like 5, but my french is decent enough, but not amazing)

bon tir - nice shot

I put this on a French translation website:

prenez le tireur

Those are funny. Somehow I doubt French Canadian hockey players go around shouting those at each other on ice...

"coup agréable!!!"
