backchecked
Pursued puck carrier
Backchecked is the past tense of backcheck, a hockey term for skating back toward your own goal to defend against an opposing rush.
A forward who backchecked hustled to disrupt the other team's attack rather than waiting for the puck to come to them: He backchecked hard and broke up the two-on-one.
