Coach Fedorov is up to his old tricks in the KHL…
From @7ElevenCanada That’s Hockey: Sergei Fedorov implemented an interesting tactic in the KHL last week by pulling his goalie in OT for a 4-on-3! @mike_p_johnson on whether any NHL teams may try this tactic this season – https://t.co/7yHrt6o9HP#TSNHockey pic.twitter.com/gnHy5MpDwx— Gino Reda (@GinoRedaTSN) September 7, 2022
As Mike Johnson explains, you can’t pull your goalie in overtime in the NHL without losing your “extra point,” should you be scored upon. I don’t see NHL coaches adopting coaching move any time soon, unless they’re in an incredibly desperate late-season, playoffs-on-the-line situation.
