Re: MICHIGAN TECH.... 2016-17 season. The 96th season of Hockey.
I thought our shots on goal number was deceiving on saturday. We had a lot of shots that were relatively easy saves for the goalie and rarely did we get a rebound opportunity. At the very end of the game, like the last 6 or 7 minutes we changed our forecheck to attack more and were getting more chances close in, but really for the bulk of the game, we never really threatened.
I will agree with someone else about the defense. It has been uncharacteristic of our team, but for one game you can see it, for 4 games, it makes you wonder. I think part of it is the forwards. The defensive side of their game has not been as strong as it needs to be and it puts more pressure on the defensemen.
