LOL, if you're always looking just at the numbers, you'd think Sharangovich is a tool but on the ice, he's fantastic no matter how you look at it. I think Hubey was doing something that we haven't seen a lot of on any given game, which is - he shot quite a bit more than what he normally does - that's a good thing. He did pass the puck off a few times and it ended up being bad plays (that's almost like 95% of the time). As long as he's not passing that puck blindly and shoots the puck when he's got a chance, it's bound to go in. I think it's just a learning process to unlearn what he had been doing for so long. That's the same for Kadri. I'm not apologetic at all with any players. If they are crap on the ice, I'll call it out or say nothing at all. If the player is doing good things, he deserve some praises. Call it as it is. Numbers don't mean much.
