I've seen McMike multiple times, Sourdif multiple, Beauvi, Hutson... No Leonard in OT. Just makes no sense to me.  ::)

This team needs a lot of things but the most vital is a d-man who can put the body on guys mid-ice like Orlov used to do.  That goal last night where the guy waltzed through three Caps all waving at the puck, was horrible.  Two physical d-men is even better.

You realize, of course, that the LaPierre goal in the Vegas game had him zipping past the defense, who never laid a hand on him?  It isn't like even the better teams lay guys out in mid-ice regularly. 


Defense is played a lot differently in the NHL these days.

this game:   ;D :snicker: :lol: :raised-eyebrow: :O= :O= :'( :praying: :huh: :cross: :thumbsup:


Can't believe how bad Vegas record is in OT and SO.


Surprised Vegas fired Cassidy their head coach.  Seems like odd timing, and they bring in Torts?

It might be different.  It's not necessarily better.  Too much of the physicality of the game has gone away.  I'm not saying you need a Scott Stevens out there knocking guys unconscious but I see numerous times when puck carriers weave through d-men when even the slightest hit would disrupt their path to a good scoring opportunity.  We haven't had a really physical defenseman since Brooks Orpik.  There's simply too much puck watching and stick waving going on.  I like skating and scoring as much as the next guy but I also like to see the game played as it was meant to be played which includes checking.
