Finish the move by pushing off your back leg inside edge to generate speed.
Cut inside your opponent with acceleration. Mistakes to avoid:
🚫Performing the spread eagle element without placing the puck perpendicular to your belly button can lead to losing the puck as it becomes reachable for a poke check and easier for opponents to steal.
🚫Lifting the leg and transferring all body weight to the back leg will lead to poor balance control and reduce a player’s ability to apply additional moves until the front leg is placed back on the ice.
☝️Note that 100% of players lift their front leg when starting to learn this move as it is easier to perform, but keeping the front leg on the ice requires a higher level of skating skills.
