Wills going on about how Hamonic has been good as of late...and Kent Wilson going all:

He has been caught looking silly but I find that is because of a sloppy Hanifin play that causes a scramble.
I knew posting that comment wouldn’t be well received as Hamonic is the whipping boy on defence this season.
On a side note: In general, I find the breakout strategy problematic as they pass D to D a few times and then move it to a forward who is by then covered. We aren’t trying to rush up the ice and instead slow things down. I hate this strategy because the opposing team has time to get into a better defensive position so we usually just chip it in.
