Subject: WAAA Why did I lose this match

Never? Check my post, two above us

LOL @ dominating team.

You played 3 lines, so your guys will lose a ton more energy than your opposition, and the 2 teams are actually pretty evenly matched. Add to that your opponent has a LOT better shooting than you do.

dominating factor are: zone... shoots... and both this factors are clearly on my side.

My players played in 3/3 same as in 1/3 or 2/3. Team with 3 lines DOES NOT play weaker in 3rd period than teams with 4 lines, only difference is loosing more seasonal energy. Vlady confirmed that to me few days ago.. Anyway, did you saw he played 3 lines in period 2 and period 3? So before laughing - check at zone, shots, lines...


I was talking that there is far too many matches where some teams get zone by 60-40 or more, and have 15-20 shots more - but gets beaten... Many managers already pointed that out

Aren't you neglecting shooting too much? Shooting strength 79 with Offense 131 is quite a good way for such disaster(s) to happen, I think.

possibly YES that is why I started to train shooting few days ago.. and for next 15-20 days - it is all about shooting

Controlling a zone only means you're stronger in that zone, it doesn't mean you should immediately win. Your opponent had far better shooting and at the end of the day, that's where you lost. You need to train your players shooting a lot more.

Just to laugh a minute

What are you laughing at? The better team won. The fact is, they have a more offensive team (ie. tons more shooting) and they played higher importance AND had home advantage. The chance of the score being the other way around is minimal at best.

Are you serious???

110% Serious, yes.

Look at how the 2 teams compare in that match. The loser has a stronger top line, but only barely stronger. The winning team has stronger 2nd and 3rd lines, and they have a lot better shooting.

Plus, the winning team has far better defense.

So you have a team playing higher importance at home, with better defense and better shooting.

How could you possibly think it would go the other way?

Oh crap ignore me... read the score wrong.

It's 3am here, only had 3 hrs sleep the last 3 days.

You're right, the score sucks. I so need to sleep. LOL

I feel like an idiot. Damn tiredness I'm gonna go take a pill and sleep and dream of not being an idiot. LOL

Ouch...
