It’s odd how on one hand the NHL promotes the skill of its players while ignoring plays of skill in these situations.
Saying Charlie Coyle didn’t have possession when he went skate-to-stick earlier this season was hilariously bad.
Today saying the Canes player dumped that in as opposed to an intentional in-possession bank off the boards to himself is also poor judgement.
