I see lots of shots and more than a few rebounds/blocks that end up getting cleared or partially cleared before we can get to them. I don't see any players parking in front of the net to clean up a shot. ND had teams that would hold the puck for too damn long and not shoot, this isn't exactly one of those teams. The problem is nobody is attacking and anticipating a rebound/block and jamming it home. At this rate, it has to be a snipe or a series of excellent passes for ND to score a goal. Who was the last ND player that had a reputation for getting in front of the goal and scoring rebounds? Anders Lee is the last one that really comes to mind. That's a bit of a long drought.
