He’s trying to hit double digits on whiffs todayJT WIFF
Blueline got burned on that pass.
2 breakaways given up so far.
That’s a low barNew #44 is way better than RealGud.
We're lucky if we see one forward forecheck consistently. And under this system we don't clog the neutral zone and give the other team easy entry. Then because our our entire team is poor at defending we get hemmed in our zone.Well, 2-man forecheck for puck pressure is the basis of Green's "system". But especially in the regular season it's a really difficult system to implement consistently.
We need F3 to be fairly deep and help clog the neutral zone. Hopefully F1/F2 pressure causes a good funnel in the neutral zone and they stand up at the blueline to deny entry or only allow a dump.
That's the way it's supposed to work. In past years the defence has sagged passively at the blueline, which lets the opposition regain the puck in the middle and build up enough speed for entry. This basically negates all of the work done up front on the forecheck.
The only idiot who wonders this is that f***ing moron Jeff VeiletteIf anyone is still wondering why Rathbone over Juolevi (and everyone else) that is why.
