| 0:00.0 | So you talked about changing the DZone system and it looked like the strong side winger is pushing out more? |
| 0:07.0 | I got some help with this. |
| 0:08.0 | Whatever you saw. |
| 0:10.0 | Just all we're doing is tweaking a little bit to just get a little more pressure. |
| 0:13.0 | I'm not going to go in the ends and outs of it though. |
| 0:16.0 | When you make tweaks up here, do you talk to Nightingale and tweak down there as well? |
| 0:23.6 | We actually had them kind of test drive it last weekend a little bit, to be honest with you. |
| 0:28.6 | So they kind of changed ahead of time, just a little tweak and work through it. |
| 0:32.6 | So we actually had some clips that we could use of theirs. |
| 0:35.6 | You know, there's always a little bit, I don't want to say lost in translation, but as much as you want the systems to be totally the same as you start coaching your team and he, and now he starts coaching his team, you're invariably gonna, you know, make little subtle changes as you go to correct problems and correct issues, and so they never end up being exactly the same but yes those |
| 0:54.2 | a conversation him and i had i i don't personally think that they need to play the exact same system |
| 0:59.1 | all the time um i think habits are the most important but in this particular case uh he wanted to |
| 1:04.5 | take a look at tweaking something too so are you taking any inspiration from the penalty kill |
| 1:09.4 | and how effective the pressure has been in that situation? Yeah, I mean, I would say, you know, yeah, yeah, yes, I am. Our penalty kill has been good. I think our guys, you know, I've said it lots of times, we've got really good killers, but those same guys are on the ice five on five, you know, and not all of them, but a lot of them. So, you know, |
| 1:28.9 | I think there's areas where we can try to create. The thing with pressure for me is if you can dictate where the puck's going, you have a better chance of pressure. If you can't dictate where the puck's going, you can't pressure. And so, you know, in our penalty kill, I think we've done a good job dictating and reading those pressure points and the other thing we've done a good job |
| 1:44.0 | on the penalty kill is no one to reset and protect |
| 1:46.0 | metal. |
| 1:47.0 | And so those two things I think are going to be important for us in D-Zone as well. |
| 1:50.0 | Calling up, Corsetskin, Renzell, what was thought behind? |
| 1:54.0 | Well, right now, you know, with Kais out, we're at six with Arie, no, five with Ardi, right? |
| 2:03.6 | Is that right? |
| 2:04.6 | Six with Arty. |
