Nuff said. :(
He used to be good at this. Not no more.

Oh yeah!
He has always been, the hardest player for me to notice, when he has a short bad stretch, every now and then.
I guess I’ve become so used to his great overall consistency, and stability, that I’ve become accustomed to not looking for his errors!
His forechecking, and checking on the boards, rarely ever rise to the level of being “teeth rattlers”, but the checks he does execute, are usually quite strategic, purposeful, and effective!
I wasn’t really eyeing Backy much, tonite, but good to hear he’s picking it up a little!
PUCKNRUSH:
Actually Kollie, I do recall him making several wicked passes lately, when we were down in the opponents zone!

He has always been around 50% on faceoffs in his career. His career average is 50.4%. This season he is at 49.6%. Not much down from his career average. His best season on faceoffs was 53.6%.
He is fine on faceoffs.
Faceoffs has been a big concern for us since we lost Beagle. We dont have a consistent faceoff man.

Sadly, the trend in this team has me very worried.
I still believe that we will make the playoffs.
However, our boys have got into some very VERY bad habits. VERY bad habits. Habiits stick.
Winning 4 - 3 against poor old Minny.... 4 - 3 ??? ???
CLUB KETTLER still reigns it seems. :( :'( :'( :'(
