A simple solution is mandate that every player has to have a hit on his first shift,
|
It's not 1978. Physicality and throwing a hit the first shift isn't the issue and mandating that will do nothing but lead to more penalties in the first period.
After the first ten mins I would limit ice time of those not moving their feet. If it is consistent that player gets all you can eat popcorn next game. Make it cut and dry, no one is safe. The Oilers as an entire team coast through the first 20 period at a minimum, often first 40 mins.
|
Its 2021, you can still hit and finish a check in the NHL and not get a penalty.
|
I agree but you can't fit a round peg in a square hole. The Oilers as a group aren't built to be a physical, bruising team.
If you want them to start better they need to have a game plan of up tempo, hard skating hockey. Pressure every pass, win every race, etc.
Sure, there are a few guys that could use your advice, but for the most part if you tell the entire team to start the game throwing the body around at every turn they would find them selves in a hole just as often.
The team comes out most games watching the other team skate hard and out shoot them. This is a team built on speed and skill, right or wrong, they will win or lose that way.
