It's inevitable that shorthanded chances will happen on occasion but it is nearly every game they are giving up a prime chance on the PP. That needs to stop.<br />-----<br /><br />One thing the Tigers will have to keep an eye on, they are crashing the net more which I like. They will need to keep an eye on having a 3rd guy back, so they don't give up odd man rushes. The wingers away from the play need to keep their awareness up and not rely on the centreman coming back every play. It could become a concern if not being recognized.<br />------<br /><br />I still don't like Dman taking faceoff draws. Lewington is the only decent one I've seen, but he is probably still under 50%.

Clouston has coached like this since he started and isn't likely to change.

He was one that stood out and made all the small plays.<br /><br />Last Regular Season Game at the Old Arena.

Labelle turned the puck over infront of the net, Scneider had not chance, and then why the heck were the defence pinching so much on the PP when we are ahead and allowed a SH goal.

Lots of guys played hard, selling out to block shots was good to see.<br /><br />Marek is still not on top of his game. Seems to be a lot of extra movement and doesn't look real confident but he battled to make some saves at key times.<br /><br />Up 6-3 with a couple minutes left why not leave the top line on the bench and give some guys some ice who barely broke a sweat, sheesh.longtimefannoreply@blogger.com
