Well, that's the pressure points.
They pressure the hell out of you.
Right.
And it's my belief that, I mean, every penalty kill that finds a way to pressure โ
aggressively is normally the best penalty kill.
The Flyers were right up near the top of the list.
He'll win the faceoff.
Oh, yeah, I've never heard that.
Outside of about a million times.
They were minus one.
Amazing run.
pk stunk and as a result probably going to be some changes but to your point you like pressure pks more and most of the league doesn't use a pressure pk carolina does yeah they use that diamond and they allow the guy to come in off the half wall off the flank cutter goche comes to mind and uh fired in the net and i mean i think
The good penalty killing teams don't allow somebody to pull the puck in tighter than the dot.
I mean, if you're outside of the dot, or even I'll push it a couple feet outside the dot before you should be pressured, and then you need that rotation at the bottom.
If they go to the bottom, then that side D's got to come over there and apply pressure.
I was lucky enough as a player to play with two defensemen where that
crease pass never came through kevin low and craig muni i mean those guys that puck never came through you were a pretty good penalty killer too well i could win a face-off and uh kevin low could clear it block it and uh craig muni could uh
You know, block a passing lane.
There weren't too many direct backdoor passing lanes.
Stepping up.
