It’s going to be about possession all game. These aliens may have a size advantage, and they sure as heck have a strength advantage (you should see the shots some of these guys take, it’s ridiculous), but if they don’t have the puck, they are not effective. Possession hockey is likely the best way to beat them, as they have not skated an if you are constantly making them move around quickly on ice, they will almost certainly lose their balance and not be effective.

I think holding the puck, making lots of passes and shooting only when there are clear opportunities is the way to beat them. If they get the puck and put shots on net they’re going to score goals, and most likely injure any goalie that stands in their way. It might turn out to be a low scoring game, maybe even a boring one if it’s just us moving the puck, but it’s the only thing that gives us the best chance to win the game.
