*Buzzsaw* Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Anyone notice Dorsett does not seem to have the speed or jump he was showing earlier in the year? He also does not seem to be hitting as much... and he is not looking to fight... which he was doing nearly every game earlier. Ever since he lost a fight with a bigger opponent after the allstar break, he hasn't been the same. Can't remember the name of the player, but Dorsett was ragdolled a bit and I am wondering if he picked up the injury there. Anyway, it seems to me he is playing through some kind of physical limitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duodenum Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 He threw a pretty big hit today and was ready to throw all game long. If he had an injury, it seems to be fully healed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William_Clarkson Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 In general it can be hard to play with that intensity in a full 82 game season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Korea Bob.Loblaw Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Less fighting later in the season, always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcfly Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 He was a Ranger so there are guys on the Devils and the Islanders that have some history with him no doubt. If we wasn't going all out, that might have had something to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMapleLaughs Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 He's going to be banged up much of the season if he plays that way, but he's doing it anyway. He's no doubt playing hurt in order to secure a contract, but he hasn't been hurt enough to be kept out of the lineup. Yay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbdoubleu Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 He's definitely been less impressive away from Horvat and Hansen, but he's still playing well within his expected role. He's on a weird line right now too. Him and Vey aren't clicking at all, style-wise, and if McMillan had a style I was aware of, I'm sure it wouldn't be working with Dorsett either. Will be interesting to see what they do when Bonino is back. Can see Matthias sliding back to the wing on either the 2nd or 3rd line. Either combination of Higgins-Vey-Dorsett, or Matthias-Vey-Dorsett makes that line a lot more balanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatedkid666 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 No, he is still playing well and is still working hard. I think he is in the shadow of Kenins and Horvat right now though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellosinki Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 When Bonino, Richardson, and Burrows get back, these would be my four lines that I would like to see... Daniel-Henrik-Burrows Higgins-Vey/Richardson-Vrbata Kassian-Matthias-Dorsett Hansen-Horvat-Kenins Anyone else seeing those working? I would send McMillan down to Utica. Also, I haven't really noticed a difference in Dorsett's play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine would be Daniel-Henrik-Kassian Higgins-Bonino-Vrbata Vey-Horvat-Burrows Hansen-Mathias-Dorsett Kind of a log jam so Kenins,McMillan is forced down. Richardson in the press box until injurys or a player goes cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
