Wanted to bump this quick to throw some praise at 78. He took the benching like a man and came back a better player. He's always been dynamic in transition. If he figures the D zone out he's gonna be good.

Happy for him, it was never an effort thing. He just needed to dumb down his game, which he has IMO.
Keep it simple should be everyone's mantra. Making things harder than they need to be has been the downfall of many people including some previous coaching and management here.

100% agree.

To the untrained eye, I think Evasons biggest win so far has been letting the guys just play. Most of them aren't overthinking it. Just letting loose. Guys like Fantilli are going to benefit big time from that.

He's also been up in the play a lot more, playing rover. So I don't know if I'd summarize the change as "keep it simple". He had to play with a harder edge in his zone and take some risk off his breakout passes.
I think it might have been an effort thing. :popcorn:

I'll accept that. Maybe I'm just basing if off not having one of his great set up passes in our slot to the other team lately. Let's just hope he can keep it up.

Part of that is just his role in the system but what I bolded is the definition of keeping it simple in my mind.

Not every pass has to be a "hero" pass on the highlight reel.
