Stupid freakin' turnovers.
That, and Montreal can skate.
Is that what he used to do? as oppose to these stupid stretch passes to the oponent>
I mean turnovers in general, Karlsson wasn't the only one.What I was getting at is that if he was allowed to skate up the ice more, there wouldn't be as many turned over long stretch passes, or even stretches that don't connect/tip-ins. And there would be more offense. You can see it when he rounds the net with the puck. Last year, he would be exploding up ice, this year he's easier to forecheck because he's trying to pick out a pass while not accelerating.
ECHL coaches would be able to figure this stuff out. It's crazy that Sullivan can't.

The reason there are too many turnovers in general is because the support isn't there. The forwards bolt up past centre ice and force all the D to make long passes. It's no surprise the best breakouts and entries they have are when they make shorter passes to a guy going with some speed. That's breakouts 101.
He has to play within the system too. Sullivan doesn’t even like it when our forwards try and beat a guy one on one in the offensive zone. Why would he encourage EK to try and beat two or 3 guys coming from our end of the ice?What I was getting at is that if he was allowed to skate up the ice more, there wouldn't be as many turned over long stretch passes, or even stretches that don't connect/tip-ins.
