I noticed last weekend, the Knights defensive coverage didn't handle pressure well and kept losing man-man. Saginaw, in particular, cycled all over the zone, turning the man-to-man inside-out. Last night, despite the fact that Erie wasn't applying anywhere near the same kind of pressure, the coverage still got scrambled.
The team was playing a defensive system extremely well a month ago. Breakouts were the best this season. But lately, they're lost. It's as if they reverted back to the beginning of the season, trying to force things individually, and causing turnovers.
At least Bouchard is making some good breakout passes, regardless of some of his mental lapses. Boys just need to settle down and play their game. Control in the D-zone, clean breakout, then blow by teams with their speed trough the middle.
Lots of hockey left.
