Hockey goals 2008

It's early, but I have some ideas on things I want to work on for this coming fall season.

• Skating, skating, skating (this is always on my list)
  
  • Backwards crossover
    
  • Backwards skating
    
  • Transitions
    
  • Quick feet (especially accelerating)
• Keep my head up (this is a big one)
  
• Concentrate on a good first shift during a game. My first 2-3 shifts are often lackadaisical as I'm trying to get my head into the game.
  
• When setting up in front of the net on offense, don't so deep as to stand at the top of the crease. Come out a little into the slot for some space.
