Ceci needs a smack. 99% of the time him jumping up is a complete waste, and usually turns into something worse coming our way. His offensive skill is crap, he should not be jumping and gambling up as much as he does. He needs to be the responsible one on his pair if that pair will have any hope.
Nurse is never going to be the responsible one, it's not how he plays, and the coaches and his D partner need to be far more aware of it.

Substitute in the name Nurse for Ceci and the exact same thing applies.. his offensive forays are 99% of the time fruitless.. and will almost always create a grade A chance against going the other direction..
I'd argue he needs to be the one responsible defensively .. not just his partner.. (whether its Ceci or someone else).. I mean its not like Nurse is a Kris Letang .. and he's a guy that provides some legit offense for the team.. and you need a defensively conscious partner to cover for the risks he needs to take to get it..
Unfortunately Nurse's offensive ability is not what he thinks it is.
The funny thing is, I remember an interview where he said he studies film all summer.. must be Netflix he's watching.
As a coach.. what can you do with this guy? I'm sure they tell him to play defense first.. yet

I would love to see Nurse not do goofy things, but I'm just accepting that it's not gonna happen, and he needs a responsible partner to cover for him. We're married to Nurse now, we'll never trade him, and he is gonna play the way he plays. The manager is in complete control of his partner though and finding a right compliment, and I think we have messed that up at the moment. Ceci seems to think he can play like a crappy version of Nurse with none of the silver linings to his game. I think Nurse is still much better on offense than Ceci, he skates better and has a better shot on the rush.
