<p>Head coach of the #Washington Capitals, Barry Trotz, has pointed out that the #New_York Rangers used every tactic they could to delay the game without actually doing anything that would warrant a penalty. Players know that they can "have equipment problems" that must be fixed to help them have a little extra time to rest before play resumes. They will also do this to help slow down the opposition when the opposition goes on the offensive. It is a good tactic because the momentum of the previous rush is then lost.</p>

Or they use it to slow the momentum of the other team if they feel like they are scrambling and about to lose ground.</div><div class="indented">Reply - gnomie - 11/10/15 7:51pm<br>It seems really cheap to me.</div>
