he needs to spend the next 5 weeks giving the freshmen and sophomores he feels might be of use in 2022/23 every rep and game opportunity to see if they're worth keeping around long term. that's not quitting, it's investing in the future.LaxPundit07 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 29, 2021 9:15 am Given the circumstances, Pete has done a good job with this squad. He is tinkering and trying to find the best way to execute JGJ's offense with the personnel he has. This personnel was clearly not born to run this style of offense.
A few random thoughts on yesterday:
How many times was Epstein going to take a low angle shot and hit the goalie right in the chest/gut? Regardless of JGJ's style, Epstein seems to be underperforming (in relation to all the hype over him coming out of Landon). I have watched them play 2-3 times this year and he looks like just another guy.
Kirson was solid low, but that could also be a result of how much he drops low on nearly every shot. He has good hands and attacks the ball well. It is frustrating to watch an accomplished goalie essentially concede the top third of the cage on every shot. If the coaching staff isn't recognizing this on film, it is negligent on their part. If I am an opponent, I am dropping my stick to my hip or three quarters and shooting high every time.
In addition to the srs moving on feels like we'll have a ton of turnover again and the question starts to become what transfers we can bring in who better fit what Milliman is trying to do.
