SoCalFlyfan Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 ...needs to come up with a new gameplan or something because the defense is killing us. Cant we play a trap or left wing lock of some sort because giving up 4/5 goals a night is not good. We have been blaming Bryz, the defense, Bob, etc, but when is lavi going to face the heat from the Flyer faithful for devising up this crap system we play .The Rangers on paper are not better us (except for Lundkvist). But they are better coached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearOnIce Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Lavys system is attack attack. There is no backcheck priority. The system does not work as well as it used to becuase of the better two-way forwards in the game today that get back up the ice. Rangers are a perfect example. Lavy's system is exposed by non-puck moving defensemen who are supposed to function as secondary forwards. Forwards and defensemen must ebb and flow togther. Up and back togther. The system takes a long time to gel and perfect and a young Flyers team is getting exposed. The dump and chase is a relic too. It is all about puck possession in both zones today with the speed of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
