This season you’ve become the go-to-guy for the majority of face-offs during a game.  Hot-damn!

This happened because you paid attention, learned how to do it and care about beating your opponent. You win the vast majority of face-offs now as you play different teams across two leagues.

Look at your eyes in the photo above – you’re locked into the ref’s eyes – your counterpart  isn’t even paying attention.  You’re looking for signals… the ref’s eyes, the hand holding the puck… tiny signals that give you the edge in terms of when he makes the drop.

It’s cool seeing you improve, using that great brain to your (and your team’s) advantage.
