I agree with this. Playing fairly solid. Just be a bit more conservative in your pinching. You're a defenseman still after all. We want to score goals but we want to keep goals against down as well, so make sure you're doing your own role as first priority.

Guys up for game shortly?

Just going to say one thing about this. At the beginning of the night Chuck mentioned that he has a tendency to be over aggressive playing defense and if it starts getting bad to tell him to tone it down and play a little more back. No one said anything so how do you expect him to stop.

Communication, it's an awesome thing. And it's essential in a team. Can't expect people to read each others mind. Jobo has mentioned to me numerous times about my cross crease forces and I'm doing my best to fix that... down to maybe 10 times a game from my usual 30 to 40, and no Jobo, I don't have a phobia of passing to the high slot

But Chuck is new to the team, he's learning our tendencies as we're learning his and we need to communicate with each other. No different then when any new player joins.

Last night was tough too because we managed to run into numerous top 10 overall teams so they pretty much magnified all of our mistakes 100x lol

Just my 2 cents.

Good post Div. Never be shy to give your honest thoughts to your teammates. I'm sure none of us will get offended since it's not intended to be. It's what will make us improve our overall play and improve our chemistry as a team.

Nice goal by Mark today in a game:
