I agree it’s not a system but that is what they do relentlessly since this moron has been coach.

Please tell me what system you see them play.

Youve criticized the system. You're up first. You haven't answered my question.

The coach tells them to get the puck in deep, so they dump it. But then they don’t want to give up an odd man rush so they only forecheck 1 player. So maybe you might need to hear 1-2-2 as a system because your to stupid to know that is a formation instead of a system. I’ve tried to explain to you what they do over and over yet you are unwilling to accept my answer. I don’t know what else to do to get you to believe that my answer is my answer.

I guess that’s easier for you to do than tell me what system you see them playing. So whatever dude, keep thinking everything was fine with the flyers.

A team's forecheck scheme is part of a hockey system. It is however only one facet of a hockey system employed by a coach. Comments like calling someone stupid while claiming that a 1-2-2 forecheck is not a hockey system along with calling a coach a moron, are disqualifying.

If Hakstol wasn't competent, why is he still coaching the team?

Why is Hextall not the GM?

Let’s assume I’m incapable of answering the system question. I am wrong I can’t do it because I am ingnorant, whatever. I am asking you to explain to me Dave hakstols system.

I don't think we need to assume. What it comes down to is if someone doesn't know or understand what the system is then they're not qualified to state that they're using the wrong system. We should leave the system evaluation to the experts.

I can't answer it in the complete detail that the Flyers coaching staff can but I can certainly give a decent description of it. So what part of the system do you want to discuss? I'll give a list.

Forecheck
Neutral zone forecheck
Defensive zone coverage.
Regroups
Breakouts
PP
PK

You just said you don’t know what system the flyers coaches are using but you wrote that it’s the wrong one. You just said I shouldn’t complain about the system if I didn’t know what it was. Hypocrite.

Tell me what your opinion is instead of just disagreeing with mine you coward.

Win...sometimes they do, sometimes they don’t. But winning is what they are trying to do.

Goodnight.
