You think Crosby gets skipped over for important faceoffs because he's a lefty?
Sure it's nice if you have someone naturally capable and shoots right, but give me a break. You throw out your best or 2nd best faceoff guy regardless of shot for important draws.
Same goes for the ridiculous LH RH for d-pairings. Sometimes it's nice, but square peg man.

Gulutzan's inability to adapt was his biggest downfall in my opinion. The complete lack of trying different forward lines, different d pairings, different PP personnel (leaving the league's top D scoring threats off the top PP for months) were frustrating to watch.
Glad he got canned!
