Playing it down low and opening up the front of the net is how most elite teams play.I had to take a break last week. When playing a drop in game or a club game, it's nothing but run and gun cross crease passes. They don't pass back to the D or take it behind the net to get a different look at things. I play LD and the RD is always in the offensive zone going offsides or in front of their net. People that started playing last year and never watched hockey are telling me how hockey works. In club I get them to stop in the offensive zone and set things up and we start scoring but next game it's back to the same old run and gun. We'll lose 9-1 because we can't even get the puck across their blue line and it's entirely in our zone the whole time but they say it's the defense's fault. One game the other team pulled their goalie for a period and we couldn't get a shot on net. I guess EA got what they wanted all these years. Abandon the already fans who love the sport for new fair weather fans.
