That "little trick" never works, it causes the other skaters to stop at the blueline and lose momentum going into the zone and usually ends up with the puck carrier getting stripped of the puck. They need to scrap that play.

That "little trick" has been working forever for the red wings but they have the talent to pull it off.

That's kind of the whole point of the play is the other forwards stop right at the line. The defenders man up on them, thus losing their own momentum, and the guy they drop it to bursts past ALL of them into the zone, then back to the point as it clears up while the defenders draw back towards their own net.

 

What? You should be in that Geico commercial. Buffalo has been doing that "trick" for at least 3 seasons. And Carolina is not the first to figure it out. The cats been out of the bag on that one for a while.

 

Buffalo has not been doing that for three seasons. They've pulled it out a couple times in the past, sure, but have never used it as their primary entry like they have this season.
