Tactically (or strategically), how did we score 4 goals in the last four minutes of the game after only scoring 6 in the time up to that point? What did we do differently?

Several Things

1) Limited turnovers. We were too sloppy w/ the ball in 2Q and 3Q and it cost us.

2) We turned the faceoffs into more of a scrum by putting two long sticks on the wings, tying up their guys and giving us a chance to win ground balls. We also used the 10 man ride more effectively and caused turnovers.


3) We did a better job of getting Perkovic the ball with his hands free. And he remembered just how freaking good he is.

4) We stopped shooting it right at LaPlante's chest and we got after the shots he did save.

Really our defense was fine in this game Denver had 3 fluky goals. We just turned the ball over too much.

Thank you. *
