Coach's Corner Critique

Here's the run down:

• Don starts ripping the Leafs because they tip the puck into their own net more than any other team that he has ever seen.  They show the two goals the Kings scored that night on Cujo - both tipped in by Leafs.
• Don has to defend some of his statements last week about telling kids to shoot more and carry the puck more and do less passing.  Don was attacked to some extent in the media.  Don shows a couple of articles on kids who have tonnes of goals to backup his point.  Don likes guys like Berezin and Middleton that want to put the puck in the net.
• A discussion on the doors at the benchs.   The show the clip of Arvedsson almost getting killed plus a few other clips.  Well done segment.  Don thinks that the doors to the benches should always be closed unless there is a whistle or the goalies is trying to get off the ice for an extra attacker.  Interesting point....we'll see if the NHL takes his advice.
• Don wants to rip Barnaby but Ron says they're out of time.  Huge let down!  Don seemed really into it - "NEXT WEEK!!!" he says.  But next week is the all-star game and I'm not sure if Don will do a CC so we may have to wait an additional week.......
