I think the reality is that Grossman is just to slow to really be doing anything in the offensive zone. If Brodie, Giordano, or Hamilton carry the puck in, they are all fast enough to get back defensively if they turn the puck over. Guys like Grossman, Wideman, and Engelland not so much. It was a dumb play by Grossman, just like his terrible pass up the middle for the Oilers 1st goal.
