Need to backcheck like crazy. Must cover the off wing or defenseman crashing weak side from high slot to low.
Hope they forecheck the crap out of Pronger. He is a weak link, and can be gotten off his game by getting him mad and over emotional => he takes bad penalties.
Shoot, shoot, and shoot some more. Put traffic in front of Luongo.
First opposition forward who comes through the crease, or puts a stick on Miller gets absolutely leveled, even if it means a penalty. (hope it is Getslaf or Crosby....)
Cannot be out hustled in any zone. Short shifts (30-40 secs.) Play for the moment. Remember, the pressure is on the home team.
Just hoping for a close instant all-time classic, and not a blowout for the Canadians....
