Quint: Face-Offs Need Facelift

Hopkins must stink at face offs too.

They actually have a new kid (there FOGO graduated last May) who has been tearing it up. However, theres some controversy that he starts his stick in an illegal position and should be violated every time.
 
the uber personnel specialization of the game pisses me off to. kids should play both ways more. face off and run off blah. short stick defenders who run off as soon as they get the ball back crazy. I long for a coach to say f it I'm going back to the way we used to it. mismatch galore while the other team tries to sub all their 'specialists' on the field.
 
Another "Hey you kids, get off my lawn!" - Why do so few teams ride any more?

It seems like there's some token chasing by the attack, a pass to a short-stick middie, and the ball's over the center line. It seems like the primary ways a clear gets stopped are an unforced bad pass or an offsides.
 
I agree with QK. It's a good middleground.
