Pro Drills with Arturs Silovs and Spencer Martin
Key Takeaways
- Align a left-handed shooter on the goal line and a right-handed shooter at the hash marks to maximize glove-side power play complexity.
- The drill runs four sequential reps: a jam play, a pop pass to the hash marks, a widened far-side option, and a final below-goal-line attack.
- Canucks goalie coach Marko Torenius uses this drill to address mechanics, decision-making, and preparation for specific opposing power play tendencies.
- Adding a shoot-or-pass option for the point-man defender increases the drill's complexity and better simulates real power play reads.
- Arturs Silovs, fresh off a World Championship bronze medal and MVP award with Latvia, is featured training alongside NHL goalie Spencer Martin.
WWhen we celebrated Artus Silovs historic MVP award and bronze medal victories with Latvia at the recent World Championships in Finland with a quick Around the Net Control Drill earlier this week, we promised a more in-depth follow up featuring the Vancouver Canucks prospect.
Silovs is featured again in this new power play drill alongside Vancouver goalie Spencer Martin and Canucks goalie development coach Marko Torenius, who both weigh in with focal points.
