It's technically the super's retirement party I think. All's I'm saying is there better be some loving wine.

I'd be very happy to bounce between teams on nights when Killdozers are super busy but I created the drat team so I don't think that's even possible.

Rutkowski, maybe put together something like what Rockatansky did in the 3rd post or whatever and PM it to him so he can stick it in that post? He also needs to update the OP I guess but that's less important if the new team info is in an early post anyway.

Actually it's right from vet to superstar, then legend. So you're even closer than you thought! I played my first real, honest, not-letting-myself-bail-if-we-get-throttled OTP game as a goalie yesterday and put up an .893 or something with n overtime 4-3 victory. It was gratifying as hell to play behind a team of 65 OVRs against a team of 75 OVRs and not give up any lousy goals. Might just go ahead and buy the boost pack though because that seems unsustainable at 57 OVR and frankly my luck is not good enough to make up for the combination of my bad rating and bad skills for very long.

Good games last night, Killdozers, especially after that first turd we put up. There are a few basic things we do a lot, lot better in games that we win, and last night we did 'em in spades. 1) cycle cycle cycle as opposed to throwing the puck into the slot right away, 2) skate to open areas of the ice on the rush and in the zone, 3) don't go headhunting. Seriously I was especially impressed by that third point; I think that we were severely outhit in pretty much all the games we won, which probably has SOMETHING to do with the fact that I don't think we took more than 3 penalties (at least after the lovely game, which I have mostly tried to forget).

Pretty wild how things turned around last night. Not that we played our BEST hockey every after those 4 drubbings, but it was certainly DECENT hockey. THose games we got pummeled were easily the worst I've ever been a part of in EASHL and we played like a bucket of pig puke. So we have some takeaways, as we were discussing in-game: - on breakouts and transitions to zone entries, forwards need to stop streaking to the blue line. Small skating adjustments. We're just a better team when we lower the tempo. The fastbreak pass has a place, but only against teams who are very dumb about not keeping defensemen backing up. -this means forwards at different levels and in different lanes. KEEP SEPARATION. Always always be skating for an OPEN area of the ice, not just straight ahead. -this goes double for puck carriers. There's just no excuse, ever, to be holding the puck and find yourself running into a D-man. If you're entering the zone and you're along the wall, either dump it in directly, cross-dump with the flip, or pinn the puck on the wall and pass it down the wall. Which you choose will depend how far away you have puck support. But again, this should rarely be an issue. It's always better to gain the zone while still in control of the puck, which means LESS BEELINING. I'm looking at you here Bob. - on approaches to the net, don't just skate. change speeds. When you're playing D, you know how you'rte trying to kind of match speeds with the man you're on and slowly shutting him down from there? Think about how you as the puck carrier can gently caress with that. The answer is hesitation and speed changes. -in the o-zone, we do great work when we get it into the corner and then make a quick pass around the net, or back up to the point. We're less successful when we pullup at the half boards and lob a desperation pass into the slot. Forwards in the zone, don't automatically skate at the net. Again, find open ice and keep moving, but not necessarily skating max speed. Open ice is where the puck will end up going, if the carrier is smart. - Tordah, we're so loving sorry. That's about it for now I think.

I'm pretty sure I know what that is. Nobody click on it, maybe it will just go away. edit: for real, they have a 70-45 record? So does that mean that at a certain point they stop hitting and try to score? Where do you think that point is, 150 hits? 200?

Ridiculous. Best fun ever. In history. Would have loved to have saved, like, 15, 20 hits from that one.
