@GenePereira1 Why Teams Choose Zone Coverage: 

•Facilitates Organization:
The system provides a clear framework for player positioning and responsibilities, which can be easier for players to learn and execute

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 Why Teams Choose Zone Coverage:
•Combines Defensive Principles:
Zone coverage allows teams to balance individual matchups with area coverage, which can be particularly effective against skilled offensive players.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 Drawbacks of man-to-man coverage:

•Can leave gaps in zone coverage:
If defenders prioritize staying with their assigned player, they may inadvertently leave gaps in the defensive zone, allowing the opposing team to exploit these gaps.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 This about sums up the Colts in the defensive end.

Drawbacks of man-to-man coverage:
•Can be difficult to maintain:
If opposing players move quickly or change direction, it can be challenging for defenders to maintain their assignments.

@subsey @GenePereira1 Hey has slowly destroyed one of the best teams on paper in Colts history 10 shots through two periods is a disgrace.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 Colts play one of the worse at man on man coverage in their own end all year. Have been all year.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 What was the disciplinary action for?

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 No defence / offence is caused by poor strategy and definitely execution. Colts have failed to make in period adjustments and wait for intermission - usually too late for that All teams are beating them at their own game. Less than 25 shots a game is not going to win many games.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 @Barrie360 Team needs to figure things out quickly when it comes to offence Offence is poor wth limited shots and goals for talent on team. Most wins are by one goal. Your goaltenders shouldn’t need to one of games stars each night you win…says a lot about team’s offence.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 @Barrie360 NB trio have been disappointing. Need to split them up. Far cry from the 300 points last season.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 Marty..starting to get worried about your job? Continually look like a team that is unprepared to start each game!! Looking forward to the excuse for tonight.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@dennyfrenchy @GenePereira1 Trading Marty tomorrow I hope.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 Would have to think that if don’t reach league final, Marty’s job may be in the line. Reminds of the team that was eliminated/ out coached by Windsor in the final. Scary part is injury bug has stayed away from big players so far.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 That is a tough one. Romani hasn’t played since mid-Oct and Van Steensel as an overager point per game far less than last year. May have put lots of points up last year between the 3 but different team-different system. Time will tell. Continue to deal away OHL first picks.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@MarkP13822 @GenePereira1 By his play in Barrie tonight looks like he has no interest in being back.

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 @Barrie360 Colts have any room in the draft cupboard to pick up Musty who is sitting at home waiting on trade from Sudbury?

[Mark Squirrell @Section121Rw1]

@GenePereira1 @TheRealHazzard6 Minus Williamson is a start. Failure to call a critical time out after the tying goal proves costly. Bring Little in to coach!!

@GenePereira1 @OHLBarrieColts @Oshawa_Generals Beau Jelsma contract offer coming
