The practice was about 50% odd man rushes drills and 50% 1 on 1 and 2 on 2 board drills.
Just my few notes from what I saw today:
Zhuknov - In almost all 2 on 1 and 3 on 2 drills looked to pass before he shoots. I don't think I remember him taking the shot once when carrying the puck into the offensive zone. He also had wasn't able be beat a defender in 1 on 1 rushes drills. In the board drills he was noticeable as he has a quick stick and could take the puck away from the opposing player.
McEneny - Had a very good stick. He was able to separate the puck from the offensive player often. Doug Lidster complemented him on it.
McCann - What a shot. A tier above any other player there in terms of speed and release time. Likes to shoot far post just above the pad or near side top shelf (small sample size)
Boeser - Nice inside outside move 1 on 1 to create room for his shoot. His body is always facing the net ready to shoot. Accurate shot.
Olson - Has good backhand deek. Looked comfortable with the puck on his stick.
Cederholm - Was the last off the ice takeing extra practice with his pivot and when to use it.
Stewart - Almost ran right through a defender on a 1 on 1 drill. Good top end speed. A few moves he made reminded me of Gino Odjick when he would dipsey doodle up the ice and you were wondering how he could do it as it looked half awkward half amazing.
