very similar to the bantam team I'm coaching. there are teams that don't try, then there are teams that try too hard. you have to let the game come to you sometimes and not chase it all over the ice
Gulutzan has worked hard to get them to just ignore the scoreboard and keep on keeping on

Completely agree.
They were trying TOO hard during that stretch. Everyone (none moreso than Johnny) was trying to do things on their own that just doesn't mesh with the team concept.
Once they relaxed a bit and just let the game unfold, they had some success which led to more confidence individually to play as a group and voila...we see a very different team. It wont last forever of course and there may even be another losing skid, but i don't think we will see the chaos that was going on for a while there.
