I think teams that use that strategy will end up with to many penalty points assed to themselves.

I think there is a great deal of strategic defenses (without giving up on scoring) , but not for teams with the "A" type personalities that are going for the big points. There are to many weaknesses for those "A" type teams, that rookie teams (and the TrackBall) could easily spoil.
