What a Tangled Web...

We Weave (or hit)

The actual quote, from Sir Walter Scott, is "Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive."  Now let's hope that tangled weave is the back of the  net! Deceptive shooting involves protecting the puck, shooting around obstacles (like another player) and faking shots to fool the goalie.  Watch this week's High End Hockey video to see this in action.

 

 

Take a look at local Challenger, Itai, using a glove as the obstacle to pull the puck around before shooting. Great job, Itai (and little bro, Liam, picking up all the pucks he shot!)!!

 

Sniper of the Week: Jayden A.

Jayden A. is this week's Sniper of the Week.  With over 1500 shots taken already this summer, this 13-year-old Bantam is making up for lost time when a broken arm last year cut short his Challenge!
