I agree, the team has bought into the system and I think that team leaders have stepped up to guide the younger players and make sure that all take ownership.
Sure, but not 6 points in a day from one team to another, not without some crazy injuries or some other stuff like that. I think you got bad info the first time.
How cold it is, and how cold one feels are entirely different matters. One’s state of mind effects the later. The team that is going thru the motions, that really doesn't want to play or to be there will feel colder.
