The point about the cycle fail was spot on and what I was talking about earlier. There is nobody to pass to off the cycle except for another cycler, especially with the strong side defensive forward going high. You would think that should open someone else up, no? Perhaps we do not like to pass it to someone even loosely covered in the slot because we don't trust where it goes from there. If we had quicker decision making a guy would not have to have 8 feet of free ice to receive a pass. There is no tic-tac-toe in our game unfortunately.
