The way this game is being played is much closer to the game I remember playing. Slower, more "North American" for lack of a better phrase. Don't get me wrong, I have no issue with the European game. I do however have roots in the slower, more physical game. Oh how I do love this game!
It's like they're playing with the "heavy" puck. For a goalkeeper, it's easier to anticipate while playing the puck.....easier to square up to shots. However, it's harder when a deflection happens and it's harder when a highly skilled player makes a move much quicker than the regular pace of the game. Still, I love it.
Celebrate the game today......this IS the sport we all love.
