One thing Colorado Avalanche head coach Patrick Roy wants to see from his club moving forward is an emphasis on simplification.
Obfuscating the offensive game has had an impact on the Avalanche’s success, and it is most often seen in an even-strength shot total tilting the way of an opponent.
“I don’t think it’s because [of] the number of shots we’ve been giving; it’s more of the shots we’re not taking,” Roy said of the situation following Tuesday’s practice.
The sentiment presented has been echoed by his players, who said they agree that simpler times could mean happier times.
