The defenseman shadows the forward as he pivots. The forward at the blue line passes the puck to the pivoting forward, who quickly touches the puck back to the forward on the blue line. The forward on the blue line begins to move down the wing while the pivoting forward is crashing the net, pushing the defenseman back. The shot comes from the wing, and the goaltender tries to steer the puck into the corner away from the front of the net. The forward generates traffic by pushing the defenseman on top of the goaltender and trying to get at any rebound left by the goaltender.
