- Learn how to MOVE like an Elite NHL Defender!
How to move like an elite NHL defender is all about taking it to the next level on how to play defense. In this Train 2.0 video, we dive further into the world of playing defense in hockey. We feature hockey skills and hockey drills that you can use to start looking more like Cale Makar when you take the ice. Specifically, this video will break down how to play better defense from the basic hockey mechanics, to how to defend in hockey, to how to effectively skate backwards and master the defense positioning. Finally, Jason reveals a little secret mechanic he used to level up his defense toolkit and that he uses to leverage the power of downhill skating. If you liked our previous video on how to play better defense, then this is the sequel. You don't want to miss it!
Learning how to skate effectively is the key to becoming a better hockey player. The Downhill Skating system is the next evolution of hockey training, built through insights gained from watching thousands of hours of NHL Superstar Mechanics, and turning them into actionable hockey training and hockey drills for all levels.
Whether you're just learning to play hockey, are on the cusp of making the jump to the next level, or are already an established pro, Train 2.0 can help you reach that next summit in your hockey development journey. We hope you enjoy today's hockey mechanic tutorial.

Thanks for watching! Are you ready to start shutting down forwards all over the ice? How are you going to use these elite defense mechanics to level up your game? Let us know in the comments below!
When you are corkscrewing backwards you aren't having your weight on your heels or you would fall over backwards?
New player here ... never played organized hockey ... learned so many things with your videos. Slowly incorporating them to my game.
Great to hear they are helping.
Keep playing man it’s a great game. Been playing for 50 years and always looking for tips
Jason, you have some of the most _unique_ and _amazing_ ice hockey training content on TH-cam!
I’ve been involved with the sport for over five decades, and the minutia you point out is simply mind-blowing (and, of course, extremely helpful and effective)! It’s almost like a surgeon dissecting and explaining every little step of a procedure. You deserve so many more subs!
Please keep up the good work, and Happy Holidays!! 🎄
I appreciate that! Thanks for the kind words.
well summarized what I want to say.
Ive been playing club hockey for 4 years now and not once have any of my coaches mentioned anything similar to what you have taught me
thank you and keep up the amazing work
That's awesome! Best of luck.
Truly the best hockey skating instruction. Join the the program.
Appreciate that, keep up the great work as well.
My ten year old just switched from center to left d. He has never played D before. I'm gonna show him these two vids. I think that he would understand most of this stuff. Great job!
Awesome, best of luck!
Totally makes sense
Another banger!
Excellent videos, explanations and examples! Thank you for sharing your hockey knowledge and insights!
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Love your videos. Especially the last little bonus section, can't wait to try it.
Let us know how it works!
cant find the "how to play defense pattern" video. I know i've seen it before. starts out with facing the boards crossover at the offensive blueline. love your work!
Excellent tips! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Excellent video, really useful. Very appreciated!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent. A figure skating coach taught me the "waltz-step" for backwards speed and agility, which is a version of the backwards corkscrew
Awesome, great mechanic to have in your tool bag!
Another great one.
Thank you! Cheers!
This is very useful information that I can utilize. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
This is gold.
Thanks alexy 👍
Very nice video, good concise training here SUBSCRIBED
Thanks and you are very welcome.
Love these. Defensemen approved!
Glad you liked it, thanks for the comment.
this was a ton of help with my defensive play thank you
No problem, glad you liked it💪
Wow, just wow! Excellent in depth analysis!
Glad you liked it 👍
@@Train2point0 I did! The last move, "the lunge" has been around for a while. We call it the "90 degree stepout". I think you're just emphasizing the outside edge more?
i literally texted the guys. im so ready
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Those so awesome. I do the hand exchange too!!
🔥👍
Just an incredible instruktion video - my son was able to practice some of it while st Training . Have a great time at The Holidays
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. You guys as well.
ohh nice bonus tip at the end! I never would have considered doing that
Glad it was helpful 👍
I love this, I use it for my 12u players. Start the kids off with good technique
Start em' young 👍
Good
Top 🔝
All that is really good but when you play with better and very fast forwards you are going to want to do backwards skating much more consistenly in order for you to keep up much more and so that they dont accelerate and start skating much faster catching you of guard. So doing backwards crossovers more consistenly is gonna give the forward a much harder time getting past you and all that, but just my expirience and opinion and i think what you show is especially great for the youth/young defencemen who needs to learn the basics
No doubt, this is just a basics my friend. Outlined for the TH-cam community and the details are on our website. Thanks for the comment 👍
Thanks again Jason - can't tell you how many times I or a teammate have tried multiple backwards crossovers or kept our legs in tight to pivot and end up with our butt on the ground watching as a forward blows by with a direct line to the goal. A big concern of mine is maintaining speed when skating backwards to match that of a forward or just to stay in their path. You often see this in the NHL - a puck handler skates in and the defender, without applying a body check but still playing the body, occupies the puck handler's space, giving them nowhere to go and allowing the puck to slide under the defender who can simply either turn and play the puck or have space for a teammate to support and play the puck.
Yeah exactly, happy to help👍
God, thats so subtle. I need to get more speed on the crossover, I started as a goalie, so what you're saying totally makes sense, but it's like a race to the dot to see if they can get around me.
Exactly.
Great video, but I would like to ask if there could be video about shuflle technique, because I was struggling with it. Thanks anyway, excellent content.
Glad you liked it! Lots of in-depth content, drills and video coaching on our website www.train2point0.com
Great video. How about doing something on the shove? I get away with shoving players with my hands, especially if I'm about to get beat at the last second. It's very effective knocking guys just off balance.
Absolutely, will keep this in mind.
I’d never heard of that poke check hand switch. About to play in a game wish me luck!
Haha kill it!
Would I need to be matching there speed going backwards so they can’t take off once they get around me?
Pretty cool! You have any defencemen stick mechanics to add in or « approche au porteur » tricks?
Potentially coming in a later video for TH-cam down the line.
Bro could you do the backward soft drag when you were playing in Powell River ?
The good old days!
The question i have for non contact leagues is when the forward takes the 90 degree from the dot and is going hard to net? In my younger days it would have been bury them in the near post. But non contact requires restraint.
How can we defend this scenario? Been a discussion in our league for a while. Any suggestions?
Stick on puck.
Right off the bat, you show 2 of the least defensive minded defencemen in the NHL, kinda funny! Also, check out Paul BOUTILIER - "Slower Coaching for Faster Results" video; especially in regards to posture. Makar has bad posture in the first clip, and was mostly luck that he actually poke-checked the puck away... Just my humble opinion, you have no reason to read what I'm putting down as legit or not... Good stuff though!
Is this Richmond ice center?
Bingo.
My other job is to tease the offenders stick....all the time and make it really annoying for them to shoot.
Love that.
