Re: Week 1

Although there were no penalties called today in NJ (practice day) I couldn't even keep track in my head. A lot of teams just don't know the rules. I heard, "Someone told me that [blah blah blah] was a rule, you better watch out so the refs don't call a penalty for that."

Teams were just confused. I don't want to hear "somebody told me, so I am going to ask someone else." It was disconcerting.

Other than that, it was interesting that the primary source of scoring came from just herding the ball into the goal. Not so much in the ways of distance shots.

Also hanging appears to be quite challenging for a lot of teams.

On the plus side, scores were higher than I expected... then again there was no defense or penalties on practice day.
