      • To be fair to Nabokov, "G. PARROS" is an elite scorer at even strength...

          • LA is not really doing much to get at Nabokov

            I don't think Toskala is going to get in this game

              The Devils play **** hockey and always have. Don't know what they're doing this season, though.
              Please .

              If you widely define the 'trap' to be cutting off passing lines and trying to force you to come up the sides of the ice instead of up the middle, then you can just about define everyone like that (and didn't Asher's link basically call Detroit's "left wing lock" to be a trap system?!). If you are coming in with 2 forecheckers, it isn't the trap.

              The trap is a 1-2-2 system where the forechecker's job is to get you to the side boards where the other 4 skaters in the neutral zone will block passing lanes. When you have more than 1 forechecker, you don't have it.

              • I would consider the left-wing lock to be a trap system, but not "the trap". It's more like a cousin, I think.

                They both arose at the same point in time for the same purpose (slowing the Russians in the 60s and 70s).

                Swedes gave birth to the trap, the Czechs the lock...

                • Are we getting to the point where every defensive strategy is going to be called a 'trap'?

                    For people who don't understand the X's and O's of hockey... yes.

                      No. Defensive styles that are designed on cutting off passing lanes and generating turnovers are called a "trap".

                      Like the LW Lock and The Trap.

                        You could always try to pick up a goalie that is likely to play tomorrow.

                        • all taken

                          and not worth it unless I'm going to win the goalie stats, which I probably wouldn't have anyways

                          the worst part though, is that I'm probably going to get a loss for shutouts, even though you didn't have any

                            • It amazes me there are so many Leaf fans. No other team has been as consistently medicore as they are.

                              • I think the main problem is Toronto has zero good defensive defensemen...
