Longest playoff drought of any single GM in NHL History.


COACHES: Here is a GREAT teaching clip on the importance of defending the middle first, especially in transition. We see this a lot in youth hockey - when the puck gets turned over, players will loop out towards the wall to get back in transition. When the most important part of the ice is defending the middle. Watch the two CAR players Staal and Ehlers on this clip. When MTL gets the puck, they turn outside the dots rather than stop and take the middle away and come back through the guts of the ice. MTL makes a pass through the middle and attack the most dangerous part of the ice on entry leading to the goal. Awesome teaching clip to show your players!

They say you're washed, 35. They say you’re soft, 35. They say you should’ve played even though the team didn’t deserve to win and you’ve played 12/16 games and you’ve been playing GREAT lately and literally stole points in your last 2 starts, 35. How will you respond, 35?





THE GRIND LINE - I am grateful that I got to watch them play. The grind and fight they brought each day was only matched by those that inhabited the greatest sports city in the land #LGRW
