@Todd

And look to the drawings/diagramms.
But again i will try(with a diagram) with it.

getting between them and their team mates.

So line 1 let see where they are going:
- the mid straight to the mid
- the defending wing to intersept between the offence players (mid and wing)

Lets say everything does go to plan, and you get the flick off perfectly
|
So the flick is made before the attacking defender can intersept or come between them.
(like i told before: quote myself:
the flick is made before it can by intersept.)

what's stopping him from dropping - say his left shoulder - to the tiles,so you swim into his back

Simply there is compleet no reason for the defender (white player)to put is shouder down. He must made a turn to intersept a player with a puck that is swimming away from him. He can stop the mid from go after the wing to help him
(but that will be obstruction and then the free puck i surly won and the free puck line will go 3 meter more to the white team gool) ,but iff you look to the other diagramms you see that its not the mid that follows him. Its the number 2 and 5 (from that diagramm)
The first one player that can block him and lett him swim into his back is player (white)6. But thats after many meters and in defence before the gool off the white team. And it has nothing to do anymore with taking a free puck
At that time its a normal break-out with the so call't highway.
