Heavy Forecheck = Scrappy Goals - J. Madura



In this San Jose Detroit game, the Wings fail to break the puck out of the zone because the sharks are tenacious on the puck and extremely physical. By not allowing a clean breakout, the Sharks are able to sustain an offensive possession that eventually leads to a quality scoring chance. I think this is the type of aggressiveness we need in the offensive zone without the puck. Always need numerous bodies on the puck with the third guy high waiting to capitalize. A tenacious attitude in the o-zone is what leads to scrappy goals (the best kind).
