“When I used to coach I always had someone opening the door.” Coach's Corner presented by BudweiserCanada | CellySZN
The reason why Cherry is so insistent about having a designated door-opener on the bench is because, as he cited, it has a real effect on winning and losing.
“He hurries because he sees the door [opening] and if he doesn’t hurry this goal doesn’t count and they’re not here now,” said Cherry as video of Blues forward Ryan O’Reilly hustling off the ice in St. Louis’ series with theplays. “When you’re getting off the ice you’ve gotta get off the ice fast and you’ve gotta have that door ready.”
To Cherry’s point, on the play shown, the Blues had a man at the ready keeping the door open so O’Reilly doesn’t have to fidget with a lock to get off – like what Landeskog had to do – and just as he did, Oskar Sundqvist managed to score a goal that couldn’t get called offside.
