Takes time cause now his passes need to travel further to get to a righty due to him playing on the left side.

Ideally when Sutter gives him more leeway, once in the o-zone he should get to his off-wing which would not only require a shorter pass to a teammate but also a great chance for a righty to one time it.

We always talk about goalies playing their angles correctly but hardly about the forwards.

I believe that wingers should be playing their off wings all the time due to pass and reception angles.

So many benefits even in the D zone and bigger wing span in neutral zone.

Anyways that is for another discussion!
