LDF Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 wow, i know there is no way he will be able to keep this up, but it is nice to see a goals scorer on the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 i was at the game last night. anyone gets those two rebounds on their stick, they had better net each of them. As for the rest of the team, it was so so... the offense is definitely up in the NHL (hawks had 35 shots or so). 'Bulin is less than impressive thus far. i fear he came here to retire.

RockRaines Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 I think Bulin is the type of goalie who relies on defensive familiarity and rhytmn. I dont think he has gotten in his groove quite yet, and isnt sure how the defense reacts in situations. Give him some time, he will improve.

You either see and stop the puck or you dont. Theres no familiarity, unless of course he became unfamiliar with a puck during the lockout.

Im not sure if you played much hockey, but there are certain differences between the way that teams play defense. Bulin was familiar with the way that his old team moved to the puck, covered for each other, etc. He may not be used to the behavior of this new scheme, or the players tendencies either. This may be why he is giving up so many rebounds in bad spots in the crease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie Montana Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 (edited) This guy is the real deal. I think he was a first round draft pick in '01 but he got injured and the surgery didnt go well, atleast that's what Jesse Rogers was saying. And we will be seeing alot more of him, probably on the 1st line right now: Jason Morgan recalled, Daze placed on injured reserve October 10, 2005 CHICAGO (AP) -- The Chicago Blackhawks on Monday placed forward Eric Daze on injured reserve and recalled forward Jason Morgan from Norfolk of the American Hockey League. Daze missed his second game this season on Sunday after tweaking his back in the warmup before Friday's game against the San Jose Sharks. Daze has had surgery to repair herniated discs in his back three times in five years. Morgan was acquired by the Blackhawks last year from the Calgary Flames in exchange for Ville Nieminen. He has played in 33 NHL games and has one goal while adding four assists. Morgan was sent to Norfolk before the start of the season, where he appeared in two games with the Admirals and had one assist.

Theres no familiarity, unless of course he became unfamiliar with a puck during the lockout. defensive familiarity would be things like how they play 2-on-1s and 3-on-2s, and Bulin and the Hawks defensemen might not be on the same page yet.

I guess I'm nitpicking a bit, but MOST teams play odd man breaks exactly the same, cover the pass and force the carrier to a bad angled shot. Defensemen know that rebounds go into the corners etc. Theres not a whole lot goin on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 You always take away the pass while forcing the worst shot possible from the puck carrier. Plus, the familiarity argument doesn't really hold up based on the goals i've seen him give up thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirScott Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 how much does your goalie want you to play the pass is the issue. you can't always play the pass and force the worst angled shot possible, the offense won't just skate in a straight line. how much room do you give the carrier to shoot?

IlliniKrush Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 It's just a general rule. Every single goalie would rather take the shooter in an isolated situation and not have to worry about stopping a one time shot off of a pass. There's no clear definition or trick to it, and every situation is different. But my original claim holds true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every goalie Ive ever heard talk about it said that they'd rather the D-Man play the pass and not mess with the puck carrier in a 2 on 1. A lot of times what happens is that if the D-Man goes for the puck carrier he ends up either screening the shot or a pass gets through to the wide open other guy and it ends up in the net.
