I wonder if they've changed their shot recorders from last year -- after all, their SQF is quite high as well. <BR/><BR/>There is one point of disagreement, that being the notion that Hitchcock teams have not generally excelled in terms of preventing quality shots. Both of the 02-03 and 03-04 Flyers were top five in SQA, while the 05-06 Flyers were top ten. And although data on SQA doesn't extend back further than 02-03 -- therefore depriving us of any insight as to how the Hitchcock Stars performed in this regard -- I suspect that they were also quite good, given the club's reputation as being a trapping team and what not.JLikenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02570453428274983835noreply@blogger.com
