from Tim Wharnsby of the Globe and Mail,
The NHL game is full of it. Speed. Pace. Up tempo. Quickness. It doesn’t matter which buzz words a coach chooses to apply when preaching from the pulpit these days, hockey at the highest level has never been played with more swiftness.
“The game is a million times faster,” Detroit Red Wings head coach Mike Babcock said. “The players are bigger, faster and in better condition. The shifts are shorter. There is no obstruction, there is no clutching or grabbing. The players are skating all the time.”
