Friendly Reminder:
Please remember that winning at all costs is not a great way to end the season. Players are customers of the AIH and all of them deserve to finish the season on a high note. Don’t allow your need to WIN cloud your judgement. 
You can shorten your bench and shift lengths in the last 4 minutes of the 3rd period, but under no circumstances can you sit out players because they are not strong/good enough before that point in the game.
