Will the real Nugent Hopkins, please stand up.

No freaking doubt man. Oilers don't have anymore league MVP's and scoring champs to try to wake Nuge up. It's OK to touch someone Nuge. Get in the game more.
For the game. Need to bring more traffic to the net. Start the game off with a lot of intensity. Take it to the Jets. Their defense isn't that good, go after them, make them have to haul you down. Every 3rd and 4th liner, finish your checks. McLeod, I like your skill and speed but you are big boy, it's OK to touch someone. Khaira, 4th line centers need more than 2 hits. Your winger Archibald who's 6 inches shorter and 36 lbs lighter had 7. Finish your checks.
|
Centers will generally have less hits than wingers. Khaira can't lead the forecheck in as much if he's being defensively responsible. If he was peeling off checks, I'd agree with you, but I didn't see him doing that.
|
I agree, wingers generally get more opportunity. Lowry who's a damn good 3rd line center had 7 hits, Lewis who played under 10 mins had 3. So they didn't do their jobs then?
I am not expecting Khaira to lead the team in hits but I expect the Oilers 3rd and 4th line centers to have more than 3 combined. I view a 3rd and 4th lines job as to get the puck deep in the zone, don't give up a ton defensively, chip in the odd goal, go hard in the on the forecheck and try to keep the puck in the other teams end by grinding down the opposition. I am not looking for Khaira to run around looking to blow up guys in a hit. But unless the center never leaves the middle of the ice which I don't see how that's possible if they are doing their jobs, if you are forechecking hard, going into the corners to grind it out and battle hard like pretty much every 3rd and 4th line is supposed to do, I don't know how you don't get a few hits. The current scoring champ and probable MVP and Lindsay winner McD had 3 hits.
