I'm curious just how much of the frame do you allow for later cropping. You're shots always seem to be perfectly framed and I know that is partially due to your experience and skill but with the fast action moving in all directions you must allow for a margin of error. I frame up pretty tight for a still sitting bird but once they hit the air I usually allow up to 50% of the frame for empty space.
Great series BTW. Thanks so much for sharing...

Charles what would work for me sometimes would be to get set while the action was at the other end of the rink; focus on the net and frame the potential shot using the goalie/net as a point of reference, then wait til the action would move into my frame, adjust the focus as needed (sort of 'Gretzky' style, be where the puck is going, not where it is LOL). Rob I'm sure has some good techniques to share.
