So we continue using the old ways because it worked, yeah l kinda get that although you’ve got to play what the rest are doing. Last yr most teams played pretty average and inconsistent, Sheffield & Belfast being our competitors, the rest we lost games due to Skalde and issues. A perfect time for a new coach to get to grips with U.K. hockey. Next year, 5 new coaches, will they all be new to the league, I’d say most yes, which brings new styles and methods, would the old ways compete or be out coached.
There are all very good arguments for both written here, it’s a very interesting set of circumstances that makes it more exciting going into next season, who will succeed and who wont. My thoughts are with the little we know getting rid of Skalde prior to a proper season, that is a mistake, yes we won the 3rd consecutive Playoff, l hope that wasn’t short sighted and next year is a risk. Obviously Todd may have a coach who will blow the league apart on the 2nd week of the season, we win the Continental Cup, the league, the Challenge and the playoffs and I’ll continue to be berated as an idiot, more than happy to be wrong.
