Nice read on Horvat here: http://o.canada.com/sports/bo-horvat-rock-solid-for-canada/
Not worried about points more about getting team the win Will give up the body and win key faceoffs 61% on FO dot leads team Canada Took a defensive role since US match He won the Western Conference coaches’ awards for best faceoff man and top shot blocker Looks like a Torts guy, Patrice Bergeron type of player.
While Pouliot was great offensively, he really needs to work on his defensive play, i saw him just staring at the puck rather than moving and covering way to often, he mostly looked lost in his on zone today.
I blame refs for that stupid penalty on Drouin.
Blame coaching staff by only having one scoring line(Mantha,Drouin,Lazar)
Blame coaching staff for Giving Horvat a defensive role only.
PUT TOGETHER A LINE OF DROUIN-HORVAT-REINHART AND WATCH THE SHOW.
Ima change mine and now go with:
FWD
Kuntiz-Crosby-Tavares
Giroux-Toews-Nash
Sharp-Getzlaf-Perry
Duchene-Bergeron- Couture
Stamkos(If he cant play then Benn)
D
Keith-Weber
Doughty-Pietrangelo
Bouwmeester-Subban
Hamhuis
Letang
Goalies
Price
Luongo
Smith(Well get selected even though he shouldnt)
Lol what happened was that i said when the Nucks score i will put on my jersey and they did but i forgot to. After TBL 2, im like omg gotta put it on now. I put it on and Nucks score.
I agree Edler game was hurt with Salo leaving, but having Garrison in the lineup is no reason why Edler should not be playing at his best.
IMO right now Garrison is far ahead of Edler. Also he is a BC boy and does a lot for the community.
