"The McDavid Move" 😷🏒

🎁 FREE Goal Scoring Package: hockeytraining.com/free-goal-...
In this video, Steve from BK Hockey shows us a drill to practice Connor McDavid's move he pulled on Morgan Rielly. We also walk 3 through warm-up drills to get our inside edge work ready for the McDavid move drill.
FYI we know that we don't nail the exact move here -- McDavid's footwork is next level. Start by trying the inside edge + crossover combination while pulling the puck across your body until you nail that...and then you can try working on McDavid's jab step and shoulder shimmy when you're ready!

He has infinite energy man. He just says, “let’s go!” And goes all out all the time. Respect 👍🏻

[@matrixmirage2148]

I love him! (Even though I literally discovered him only a few hours ago) Mad skills!

[@bradenlachance5498]

This is by far the hardest move I’ve tried thanks for the help guys!!😁

[@kenmac542]

Not sure even McDavid could pull off that exact move, quite as perfectly as he did......thanks for the video!

[@af3453]

I love Steve’s videos! He is really good ad a coach. Please keep up with this work!

[@stevielavietv8957]

Steve is just incredible

[@thecount1001]

actually does a good job demonstrating that. of course it's not the same, speed, no defence etc, but you can see that's essentially the move. the breakdown at the end is the best. i've watched it myself about 30 times, and slowed it down to .25 speed. Connor goes to his right casually, heads up looking for help, then goes right hard (barely perceptible at speed) and you can see the D shift that way, but it's a decoy of course. and as soon as he goes hard right, he goes harder left and just goes. to be honest, the D does an amazing job, great skater to actually follow him around. i bet half the D in the league would have been totally undressed. this guy was BEAT, but he wasn't UNDRESSED at all. both amazing players.

[@glenmiller1437]

I think a big part of this move succeeding is one thing you mentioned above. McDavid goes right just enough to get the Dman to shift his weight that direction, and most visibly, start a leg crossover. At that point the Dman is vulnerable to a hard cutback, and that's exactly what McDavid does. By the time the Dman shifts his weight back and follows, McDavid has a clear stride or two on him. The move also plays into a Dmans instinct to keep attackers to the outside to reduce their shooting angle. McDavid exploits that to create a wider path with a less sharp angle to the net anyhow. I suppose you defend against this by keeping your backwards speed up and letting McDavid have more room to the center of the ice. Then it's not so clear to McDavid that he can beat you to the outside. McDavid ends up closer to the net and in the center of the ice that way, but he's on his backhand, which would probably be preferable overall.

Didn't notice the stutter step until now, thanks

[@briancole7412]

Steve is an absolute beauty!

[@bjfitzpatrick2099]

Power Edge Pro is the training he did as a kid and still does today. Check them out

[@victorarwengrim7333]

Great video🏒🏒

[@thomasmazurek302]

I've done a bit of work with Steve at this rink, great coach.

[@hockeytraining]

Nice! He's awesome

[@dan9768569969]

When you do the 1 foot with inside and outside edges you should start from a standstill and work on pulling your leg all the way in and extending it out for power. Simply rocking your foot back-and-forth may look like you're doing the drill but will provide little benefit. If you're starting out you should start with giant c inside and outside edges. (Never be afraid to fall)

[@aoukniieeyou2861]

Keep up the good vids ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@hockeytraining]

Thank you 🙏

[@Chr0mePisto1a]

[@jugglejazz]

The ‘blow by’ definitely comes from getting into those crossovers.

[@anis.97]

Thank you very much for the video, but can you release the video on the training session McDavid

[@hockeytraining]

We don't have footage, but I will see if Gary Roberts would be interested in letting us do a feature of his training this off-season!

[@anis.97]

Hockey Training, Ok thank you so much for your videos

[@yogibearstie]

I would try it on a basketball court to get a bit of muscle memory into that deceptive stutter step and the explosive change of direction.

[@longdog33]

The jab is actually to his right, MR bites, then explodes to his left.

[@nikokolovos9432]

this is prety good

[@palyze]
