This is a short video from last night's action...
Crew:
Refs -- Eric Furlatt (27), Greg Kimmerlyn (18)
Lines -- Dan Schachte (47) - another American linesman, Scott Driscoll (68)
** First note, HOW HARD THE PUCK HITS THE POST!!!
** Note Eric Furlatt positioning, and his presence in amongst the players, he positions himself to command control of a situation that could escalate even more
** Note the linesmen and how quick they get in there to help diffuse the situation. Great linesmen can make a referee look even better with hustle, anticipation, and awareness.
Many times, over the years, I have been on the linesmen case for not hustling. I have discovered that they "think" they are hustling. When possible, I am going to show clips where linesmen SPRINT to the players (3 P's). This is like a 100 m dash, not a casual skate.
