In the OZ, I like to make quick passes on one side of the ice until the defense collapses towards that side, and then I pass it back to the opposite ( weak side ) defenseman, which usually gets my opponent’s players chasing and creates a gap down the middle.Īnother example is when I have the puck as the winger off the rush. But I try to be unpredictable and efficient in my approach. To create space, similarly to a ‘‘ tiki-taka’’ in soccer, I like to make quick and short one-touch passes to shift my opponent to one side of the ice, which makes it easier to break down the defense.
I take whatever is given to me I keep my “head up’’ and scan the ice to recognize open spaces. If you look at the Golden State Warriors in their best days, they liked to pick opponents apart with quick consecutive passes to create space, but if the space is already given they don’t hesitate and they strike quickly before setting up. Many players get in the OZ and circle in the corners for a long time, getting a lot of ToA but looking for an obvious play and being predictable. In the neutral and offensive zones he is quick but efficient in his approach. If you look at a top player like Matthew “ YungGren ” Grenier, he sometimes gets out ToA’ed (Time on Attack) by his opponents, but it doesn’t matter, as defensively he has good gap control and is able to keep players to the outside.

In-game it helps me to have a clearer idea of what to do, to minimize hesitation and to react more quickly. I’ve found that visualization of game situations where I struggle the most has been beneficial. I would also like to keep playing at a high pace for 60 minutes, and to shoot more - I tend to look for the perfect play. The game situations I need to work on are defending rushes (2 on 1s and 3 on 2s), D-zone faceoffs, clock awareness and puck management. JL: The mental aspect is the biggest part of the game, in any sport or esport, so of course my biggest hardships in NHL have been consistency in level of play from day to day and in-game from beginning to end. JH: What are some sticking points in your game? I started playing around NHL09, playing Versus and EASHL with real life friends more casually, and then more seriously around NHL19 where I started to compete in Versus tournaments. In a way, chel was a way to express myself on the ice competitively, since I wasn’t able to in real life.

My love for hockey has always been there, watching hockey on TV and playing on outdoor rinks very often growing up. I played at the AA and AAA levels until U21. JL: I’ve always wanted to play hockey, but soccer was more affordable so that’s why my parents put me into soccer early on (around 5 years old).
JH: What is your athletic background and how did you get into Chel? In the second, the tables turn and he asks me for solutions to a few tricky tactical questions. In the first I quiz Julien about his background and how he reads the game.
