This drill starts with all players lined up in the corner.  Because three players at a time are involved, it may be a good idea for players to go with their linemates.  The coach or designated player is positioned just off the side of the net as shown.  To start, all three players go at the same time.  F1 skates around the cone just past center ice and skates back towards the coach to receive a long stretch pass.
