here's the thing. when you shoot 40 pucks at the crowd of players in front of the net, a percentage of them will deflect into the net. What do you think all the coaching talk about getting more traffic in front of the goalie is about. its about standing directly between the goalie and the shooter and bringing a defenseman with you.
If we had players on this team who tussled in front of the net and put pucks in I'd say throwing pucks at the net is a good plan. But we don't. Its almost like our boys are blind to rebounds. We haven't had anyone who is a reliable presence in front of opposition net. We just don't.
