This is a Torts coached team for sure…. Players willing to sacrifice to block everything no matter what, ignore everything in the perimeter and fall back to put everyone in front of the net and block everything moving laterally you can and clog the crap out of shooting lanes so no good angle to the net for shots to get through… holding sticks or keeping guys in front of the net locked down so they can’t put in the rebounds from our point shots
philly is committed to it in this game and we aren’t moving the puck quickly enough to make them pay for their strategy….
we are falling into the trap where we think the open ice is showing us as playing well…. But it’s going to just take one turnover or one counter attack greasy goal with a tip as they time their skating in front of the goalie and boom we are tied….
