Check out the footage of the Stanley Cup Winning Goal:
Notice -->
LA Kings: 1. Starts with great d-zone coverage
2. Kings enter zone wide
3. Kings Middle Lane Drive!!
4. Martinez stays wide in "scoring alley"
5. Shot is for a rebound - POP
6. Easy tap in goal off fundamentally sound hockey
NY Rangers: 1. Right D is outside dots - makes him pivot and lose vision
2. First back-checker gets back hard but goes to the outside King
3. 2 Rangers pick up bad angle shooter
4. Overall poor recognition of the 3 Rangers
Fundamentals are key to winning and even losing. The Kings demonstrate here how to win. Watch this clip with these notes in mind and get your head around school and hockey coming sooner than you think. Enjoy your August!
