Maybe this is just me but I think it makes for interesting discussion.
What is up with the treatment of Hoffman by the Senators? He - in my opinion at least - has been our best player so far this season and played quite well last year, and here is what he's got:
- No PP time last year despite dominating in ES goals
- Taken to arbitration over salary negotiations despite having a great year (granted, he lost in arbitration)
- Played largely on 3rd and 4 lines last year
- Now he gets 2nd PP time while that useless plug Ryan gets to play on the first unit
- Gets no ice time 3 on 3 despite that he would likely be our best 3 on 3 player
What gives? Is it just me or is this just blatant disrespect to one of our best players and top goal scorer?
What does he need to do to get these kind of opportunities?
