Amen. Even Remenda was peeved the other night in Chicago, doing a
video vignette showing the Sharks winning faceoffs, and the defensemen
immediately firing it up the ice and heading for the bench. He said
that you should be able to effect line changes without donating the
pcuk back to the opposition doing it, for which he's 100% correct.

I might add that it's [articularly essential to figure a methof
mainatining possession duirng line changes because the Sharks like to
roll lines on short shifts. It seems they play half the game dumping
and running for the bench.
