AV and his continued loyalty and belief that the fossils on defense must play at all crucial times in close games so as to make sure they get "another kick at the can", is costing us this series. meanwhile brady and brandon sit stapled to the bench watching the inevitable.
its always the same with AV.
the tanner glass thing has worked, he's been pretty good bringing some emotion and grind to this otherwise bland group of fancy dancer (passers) and perpetual peripheral players.
but again, AV over plays his hand and naturally elevates tanner glass from part time niche player to a main street prime time actor who's on the ice too much and at the wrong time too much.
AV gonna AV
buchnevich sits in a suit watching from above while chris kreider suits up and kinda does the same thing, watch and not much else. some one needs to see if the cord from his body to his brain is unplugged cause it appears those 2 body parts do not communicate. he looks like a 6'3 225 lb pee wee who's making it up every shift.
and what up with derek stepan ? surprisingly he's found another gear slower than his other slow gear and now looks to be bringing some where close to bald beer league guy slow and maybe D3 3rd line forward who's just good enough to play college hockey but probably should be on the club team, slow. in other words, dude is slooooooowwwww and predictable. he flings muffins when ever his painfully weak shot isnt blocked, deflected or just turned the other way as a pass to the other guys.
jtmiller hasnt done anything in the playoffs and kevin hayed looks stoned and confused as usual and seems allergic to shooting the puck.
yet that 4some continues to march out there every shift and go through the motions.
cuz AV gonna keep AV'in damn it. keep Av'in over and over and over.
we can still win this series against a fairly bad sens team but for that to happen, we would need to overcome a 3-2 deficit and a coach who appears to be stubbornly clueless and bent on making sure his faves get that last "kick at the can".
