Colgate 2/4

[Dafatone]

At least against Alaska, Brown and Harvard I thought it was clear that we were by far the better team running into bad puck luck. The last few weeks of struggle we've shown flashes of how good we could be but mostly are fumbling the puck for no reason or trying to Kitty Pryde through the defense. Puck movement is aimless and every time it looks like we've actually maneuvered our way to an open man for a clean shot, the pass is offline enough (into the skates or to the backhand) that the puck can't be handled or one-timed cleanly. It's infuriating.

After a snap pass around the umbrella we do seem to wait for the opponent to regain possession of the lane before shooting because otherwise it wouldn't be sporting.  And as somebody said during the game thread, Malinski has now reached Doug Murray levels of heavy but wild slappers.

Our guys underneath don't do anything and we don't work to get the puck down low. Need more movement away from the puck and more movement of the puck high-low instead of around the umbrella.

Again, gotta stress that I don't actually know hockey strategy.
