Basing it on 5 he’s played over last year. Or something like that.
.
Kidding aside, point is he’s pass first guy and everyone knows it. Need to establish shot or D will ALWAYS play pass.

There’s never a need to levy that accusation. Stuff happens. Repost.

When there are coincidentals during OT, the players can return. Play continues at 5-5 (or in this case 5-4) until the next stoppage. Then 4-4 play resumes (in this case 3-4). Note that the final 4.8 seconds were played 3-4. BTW Sid almost set up Geno at the end.

That was their “best penalty killer” not being their best penalty killer in that instance.

Everyone expects Martin to be moved. I’d keep Martin (even if it means getting nothing for him when he becomes a FA), and move Ehrhoff in order to find minutes for Harrington and Pouliot.

He’s a better playmaker than shooter. Get Downie off that line and move BB over and you’ll see a much better game out of him. Frankly Downie needs to watch until he stops taking penalties every night.
