    one thing i like about tocchet is that he always seems like he knows where the team is falling short, and is actively trying to fix it, there are some coaches around the league that sometimes you get the feeling they either dont know what is going wrong, or they have no idea how to fix it.

      It helps that despite being a point producer in the NHL, it wasn’t expected. He was a 6th round pick when I believe they only had 6 rounds in the draft and even though he had a 100 point season in his final junior year, I don’t think a lot was expected of him and he had 39 points in his first full nhl season. He got where he got through a lot of hard work in one of the toughest times to play. So he knows what it takes and can impart that to the players.

      As a Minnesota fan I hate seeing this too. This team has had a tough time adjusting if thier plan isn't working and it took them 3 games to figure out a counter punch line setup against Toronto (literally watched thier lines switch in 1st period game 3). Now they are being asked to change on the fly in a do or die game 5 to address whatever changes Toronto makes? I hope they can but I'm not confident.
      This is just good hockey to watch, though if MN does win it'll be tainted without having Spooner on the ice. Either way I hope you enjoy the game

    Well, if there’s one coach who knows how hard you have to work to be the best, it’s Rick Tocchet. Big guy but a 6th round draft pick when I believe they only had 6 rounds. He had a great final year in junior, but I don’t know that a lot was expected of him in the pros besides enforcer/grinder/bottom 6. But he got to where he got through sheer will and determination. For all the “passengers,” Tocchet has managed to get through to the majority of the team over the course of the season. But there’s more certain guys can give.

    The only two teams I hate are Pittsburgh and Vancouver. Though I'm a Bruins fan living in Leaf nation, I would like to see a Canadian team in the Cup final...even Vancouver, I acain't imagine the stress of having three of my teams in the playoffs. So, yeah, for the first time in ages, Vancouver isn't on my hate list. I think it may be this line up that's lessened my vitriol. Love the channel.

    I watch pretty much all avalanche games. The last 2-1/2 games they look like they have given up and are self sabotaging.... especially the best players. Passes are terrible, falling down a lot, looking completely disinterested on the bench. I like Dallas too, but are they really shutting these guys down that effectively? Or is something else going on? Like a sabotage from an employee spiking the Gatorade with bong water? Or the Mafia is making these players an offer they can't refuse....if you know what I mean? 😮😂

    Happy with the PWHL's success, happy people seem to WANT it to succeed, but some cracks are showing. They need more talent. And that's not something you fix from the top. Schools and younger leagues need to be looked at. I don't think it's once they reach the professional level that girls get discouraged from sports, I think it's when they are kids, from their parents, their schools.
    Right now, in terms of player talent pool, the PWHL simply cannot expand. MTL's team was playing short bench for essentially the last hour.... they didn't trust half of their team enough to put them on the ice. That's an issue. The problem before is that talent was diluted between two leagues, but now we have one concentrated league. And lack of talent still seems to be an issue. I don't think that's something you fix from the top.... that's something that needs to be fixed from the bottom. Schools, parents and minor hockey associations have to do a much better job at the teenage level, there are no efforts to that I can see to encourage sports to teenage girls, everyone seems, or at least says, they want to support female athletes but there seems to be 0 effort to create new ones.
    Star players don't happen by magic, they are trained and have passion at a young age. If girls aren't encouraged and pushed, how do we expect to fill the ranks of any female league?
