Winger, in the game of ice hockey, is a forward position of a player whose primary zone of play on the ice is along the outer playing area. They typically work by flanking the centre forward. Originally the name was given to forward players who went up and down the sides of the rink. Nowadays, there are different types of wingers in the game — out-and-out goal scorers, checkers who disrupt the opponents, and forwards who work along the boards and in the corners. They tend to be bigger than centreman and smaller than defenceman. This position is commonly referred to by the side of the rink that the winger normally takes, i.e. "left wing" or "right wing." == Defensive zone play == The wingers' responsibilities in the defensive zone include the following: *wait for a pass from their teammates *intercept a pass to the opposing defenceman *attack the opposing defencemen when they have the puck Wingers should typically not: *play deep in their zone *help out their teammates along the boards Wingers should be playing high in the zone, and always be vigilant for a breakout pass or a chance to chip the puck offside. When wingers receive a pass along the boards, they can exercise a number of options: *Bank the puck off the boards or glass to get it out of the zone *Redirect or softly pass the puck to a rushing forward *Shoot the puck out to the centre line to another forward who can either set up an attack, or dump the puck into the offensive zone to summon a line change *Carry the puck themselves to attempt a breakaway or an odd man rush 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Winger (ice hockey)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
