   I know on one offensive possession Orlov and Carlson were forced to pass back and forth at the blue line because neither guy had a shooting lane lane and all 3 forwards were in front of the net so they had no one else to pass to. Shooting there would have been stupid. They would have been shooting right into a guys shinpads. That likely would have resulted in an oddman rush the other way. One of the forwards should have given the dmen support by moving to the half wall.
    Believe it or not guys. Not every shot is a wise shot.

odd though, we've seen this squad pass when they had a wide open net far more times than I can count, let's also ignor the fact that %100 of the shots you don't take won't go in the damn net
