This is a really good drill to help defense focus on handling the puck in transition while keeping their feet moving.  The forwards should be in two lines at each blue line on one side of the ice.  The defense should be lined up at the blue lines on the other side of the ice.  The forwards should have the pucks.  To start the drill D1 skates forwards up to center ice, transitions backwards, and then receives a pass from F1.  After making the pass F1 circles through the neutral zone as shown and times their swing to receive a flat pass from D1.  D1 needs to receive the pass and keep moving to create a good passing angle to make a good pass to F1.  Defense can also work on escape moves if they want. F1 receives the pass and then goes in for a shot on net.
