I will make no bones about it - i don't like him as a hockey player.
It's maybe because he is -3 vs Anaheim , or that he weekly coughed up the puck with 4 mins left. Or because he let Winnik drive the net uncontested on the 4th goal (yeah, it was a lucky bounce, but still). But most of all, did anyone notice in the game vs San Jose, midway through the 3rd , he was in the slot in the offensive zone, the puck came to him.......he was a bit awkwardly positioned , but he didn't even try to 'right' himself to make a play on the net, but basically just shot it straight into the corner ? He was between the hash marks , not at the point.....this tells me he is :
A) a really stupid player
B) has zero offensive ability
C) is so scared of being hit or any physical contact, he rids himself of the puck as soon as possible.
D) all of the above
