True. I think that's why Pavel Bure gets so many goals...he sneaks in behind the grinders and next thing you know he's screaming down on some hapless, defenseless goalie. Once he's behind the defense, no one is going to catch him.
>What really gets inforced? I see a lot of sticks to the elbow to slow the rushers down. The original setup of the trap is not there. But there are variation on the theme. Slow the other team down before they get to the blue line. I find the west plays a lot more postional game. Closing the passing lanes. And forcing the puck carrier to the outside.
