Popular Post mll Posted November 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 29, 2021 25 minutes ago, Taphouse Canuck said: They played about half a good game, I just don't understand why it's beyond them to play a solid 60 minutes. Is their fitness level an issue? As for the PK it is a joke. I've watched two games recently with two teams who have a great PK: the Pens and the Flames. What they do is not rocket science, surely it can't be hard for a professional coach to teach that. All that happens at the moment is that all 4 PKers eventually compress into the centre of the ice, making a perfect screen for any shots. Petey is taking a lot of flak because of his inability to score, and rightly so, but Brock is even worse. He never wins any puck battles, he doesn't forecheck, he doesn't even seem to be skating hard. If he has to backcheck he arrives about 5 seconds after the puck goes in the net. All this losing is getting monotonous. Hansen explains that coaching is minimal on a PK - either you have players who know how to kill penalties or you don’t. He blames it 100% on personnel even saying that the guys they have aren’t PKers. He points out that they are missing a right handed C for draws and don’t have shot blocking Ds. Benning blames it on systems. Could Hansen and Green be right and it’s a roster issue rather than about systems. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don’t have the players to play that style of pk, you find a pk style that can take advantage of what they can do. It’s called coaching. I love Hansen but honestly he is simply trying too hard most of the time to absolve the coaches of any responsibility here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borderline Canuck Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 So if a team can't play a full 60 minutes whose fault is that ? The players or the coach ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck4digits Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Are we sure Green didn’t say “we lose 9 out of 10 games” the other day ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForzaTikare Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 First I stopped setting the alarm at 3/4 am to watch games and watched the condensed game instead... Now I just watch the NHL.com scoresheet to see how much we lost by.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
