Norwich Hockey - Time to Regroup

overall the team played fast -physical- and were relentless on the puck all night---thet scored a bunch of goals right around the crease and kept the puck in the offensive zone quite often-

Physical was something that I believe Coach Ellsworth's teams shied away from because of generally the only thing that resulted from them was penalties in his my IIRC.

I could have that wrong, but I thought I remember that being a common theme or philosophy was to always be in the right position on defense, rather than looking for the big hit.
 
Got to go back and watch. Definitely going to be more like the McShane days of trying to out-score people (which it appears they have the talent to do). Aggressive on the attack, which is probably going to lead to some odd-man rushes the other way. Mike once told me he didn't worry too much about giving up goals as long as they could score a bunch of them. Obviously worked out well for a long time. They pummeled a bad team and will skate against a D1 this weekend. I don't think we'll have the full picture until Nov. 1st when Curry comes to town but I am definitely excited and optimistic.
