Whatever, RNH and Eberle are two of the least assertive players I have ever seen lace up skates in the NHL. Absolutely no urgency or try in their game. RNH plays something like 23 minutes a game and contributes next to nothing unless your keeping stats on shots into shin pads or drop passes into traffic. Eberle contributes dick. Hall at least looks like he's trying half the time. So tired of these three boys.
I think it's painfully obvious (to me at least) that these 3 need to stop being force fed to each other. In other words, they have to be broken up.
It ****ing frustrates me to no end. They are so completely and utterly predictable when they're played together and RNH in particular is rendered almost completely useless as it becomes the Hall show with his sidekick Eberle.
RNH should be the driving force of his own line, and anytime he's been separated from Hall in particular he been much more assertive. I thought Eberle has always looked better without Hall as well. I don't care how much money anyone makes they need to keep these ****ing guys apart for awhile.
However I do agree that it's pretty sad how soft and unaggressive RNH and Eberle are on both sides of the puck. These guys are NHL players and good ones at that, but they can be so much better. You see a lack of fire, a lack of passion to score. I don't know what it is. Particularly with Nugent-Hopkins... this guy is a first overall pick for Christ's sake... with great hands, a pretty damn good shot and supposedly elite skill but he rarely uses it, he plays like he's been neutered half the damn time.
