Shift Time

Team,

Just a reminder going into the season as to how long an efficient shift should last. There is no reason to be on the ice more than a minute. We want to encourage fresh legs and smart changes. This can be as simple as getting the puck deep (and changing) when you are 30 seconds into a shift instead of trying to challenge the opposing D.

Please read the following article on shift length and how it affects the game:
