That was a downright horrible sequence by Matthews. Full stop. Doesn't mean hes a bad defensive player though. Single plays are single plays.It's really hard to argue that a centre playing the best defense on the play is equivalent to a defencemen playing no defense.
It was a terrible screen by Matthews, didn't allow his goalie to see the puck, and then Matthews slipped out of the way right as the shot came by.Also a bad goal on a third string goalie, but that's why he's a third string goalie. Martin Jones needs to realize he's allowed to stand up to see where the puck is going.
You are seriously defending Matthews play of this sequence? Lol.
