Beauts shot rates demonstrate shift in philosophy

It’s only been a week since the Buffalo Beauts had announced a coaching change, replacing the league’s only original bench boss. One of the ideals that was referenced frequently as general manager Nik Fattey addressed the media was a shift toward contemporary strategies. Whether you’re Li’l John or a contemporary hockey coach, your focus is mainly on one thing: Shots shots shotshotshotshots shots shots...well...you get the picture.

All kidding aside, shot rates are a key factor in victory over time. Sure, the team with fewer shots will win a game here or there, but probabilities certainly lie with the team with more shots.
