Several reasons for varying performances by athletes
Why the difference?
We often hear remarks about the performances decants teams
especially as tbey apply to hockey. The mrlstheard complaint is
why does a team look so good one night and bad the neat niylit.
There are a number of reasons, but, probably tine____ upor-
tant is that we are all humans. Then coarses the banner er ! '
breaks which have a habit of switching from one team to anetiea►
The OHA series between the Exeter Mohawks and Lt eemore
was a prime example of the way the breaks and bounces of the
puck can decide the outcome of a game.
Game plans laid out by the respective coaches can also have
a lot to do with the way teams perform especially if one clashes
with the style of play of the other.
The difference in play from one game to another has certain-
ly come to the fore in the NHL playoffs and been responsible for
the numerous upsets:
It seems each year that upsets are becoming more numerous
and could be responsible for a change in playoff formats.
Three of the four teams that won division championships were
eliminated in the first round by teams which finished fourth. There -
should be some advantage to the team that finishes in first place
after 80 games.
Not only should there be changes in the first round of playoffs,
but, in the way teams qualify for the playoffs.
The prime example of the latter comes up with the Toronto
Maple Leafs wen made the playoffs *We* 37 points. irailu
