I've said it before but I just don't get what Huberdeau's issue is with right side vs left side.

If he said I can't get the puck out of my own zone because my body is in a different position than I'm used to on the left side (facing the net and his defenseman more than the opposing defenseman) and with that we spend too much time in the defensive zone and it's killing my offence ... I'd get it.

But once you get across the blueline hockey becomes a F1, F2 and F3 thing without any real lanes.

Puzzling to me.
TBF his pass was right at the blue line. at that spot all the defenders are still spaced out. I think his issue is when he gets deeper into the zone - he like the puck nearer the wall for protection and then dislikes turning and opening up to make the pass on his forehand.
