Ovi is the GR8 for a reason, etc. We have some good rookies this year in Burakovsky and O'Brien. The one thing that all the coaches have failed to achieve with this group over the years is getting everyone to buy into the system 100%, this includes certain players addressing and changing there bad habits. He's increased the backchecking on nearly all the forwards, were limiting shots each game and having more controlled breakouts into the oppositions end. Overall I'm highly impressed with what hes done with the team so far.
Now im really impressed with Mitch Korn and his work with Braden Holtby and Justin Peters (even though hes had limited appearances because of Holts great play). I have always had faith in Holtby, he has top tier potential, extremely confident and calm under high stressed positions. Last season he just didn't have it going for him, he always looked tense and never at ease in the crease. Granted the D wasn't giving him much help for a large part of the season. So I'm really looking forward to seeing how he finishes the season.
Now we have a tough task here new years day against the Hawks, Toews and kaner are the absolute best pairing in the NHL PERIOD!!!!
Let's go CAPS!!!!!
