Well written Coach Frenchy!

Few questions about Blashill.
1) I think I read he gave the team a hard practice after the loss to the Canucks. Is he going to burn them out,or do you think he’s learned when and how to push the buttons of giving them some easy practices and not overdoing it too much?
2) I didn’t follow him at all with Detroit,remember hearing his name and knowing who he was,but other than that … Zero… Has anything specifically changed with Blashill since his Detroit days? Is he doing anything different that shows he’s learned something from being a HC and working for a few years with Cooper? Or is he running the same program he ran with the Res Wings?

Anybody read Ben Pope’s arricle in the suntimes about the changes Blashill is making?

I didn’t get this part:

Other systems
The Hawks’ neutral-zone trap remains similar to the 1-1-3 system Sorensen installed last winter, albeit with slightly more aggressiveness involved.

A 1-1-3 trap involves one forward (the “F1″) pressuring the breakout, a second forward supporting him and three Hawks guarding the blue line. If there’s a contested puck, it can morph into more of a 2-1-2.

The Hawks’ defensive-zone breakouts after dump-ins by the opposition will look different. Instead of both defensemen skating below the goal line, one will hold above the net and wait for the puck-retrieving defenseman to either wheel around the net or reverse direction.

The retriever won’t have the option of a “D-to-D” pass, but he should also encounter less forechecking pressure.

Why remove the option of a D 2 D pass?
So the retreiver has to skate the puck out himself,or ring it around out of the zone or find a forward to pass to?

Nice to have 2 spots to talk Hocks witht the season starting soon.

Kantserov scored another goal today and Frondell’a Djurgarden should start in about 2 hours.

All eyes on Korch and Allan tonight?

Hey Capn, your posts are always solid. Glad you made your way over………….. The lineups out? Always wanna see Allan, I’m a fan, but really wanna see Spellacy most and Lardis too. IMO there’s gonna be a time where Gavin Hayes nudges his way into the conversation…. Kid cruises with his head up, has the shot to score while he creates in a smooth manner.

Hey hey Rico
Nice to see you are still around!
How did the young gun Korch look last night?

Read quite a few posts that Moore looked good(not just because of the goal).

Greene killed it at the dot last night,not sure how his play was outside of that

Thanks Coach!

Frondell had a nice tip for a goal as well!

Edit: tried to reply to Cach Frenchy’s welcome post..donno what’s going on..doesn’t matter. I guess I’ll figure it out
