Senior and I were talking about the D the other night, between attacks from the grandson. In minor hockey, one of the first things they taught you was you don't go behind the net if your partner is already there. Always have at least 1 d in front of the net. So it amazes me that players can rise to the level of the NHL and still make that mistake. The Sens do it constantly. Not sure how you explain that.
Coaching?
one would think by the time they reached the NHL, they wouldn't need to be told that anymore.
