Is this a bad time for me to say that I think Glass has been great?
Yes, he had -3 last game, but I don`t blame Glass, but the coach for dubious decisions in the last minutes of hockey games in playoffs this year.

If you're gonna use his career sample size, why not sit Nash too then?
I disagree. This is just the gambler's fallacy. Just because an unlikely outcome has occurred (Glass playing a few good games) does not at all outweigh all the other data we have and make it likely that he will continue to play good games.
I would say spots SHOULD be given based on your name however by "name" I don't mean a player like Staal or Girardi who was good years ago and isn't any good now. Skjei is a better player than them now. We've seen it over the course of the entire season. He should be getting the big minutes. Just play your best players and play them the most regardless of how they've been doing over the last few games.
Also why do we care about Miller's playoff numbers 2-3 years ago when he was a bottom line player? He was ok last year and this year he has admittedly been really bad but, provided he's not injured (which is something the team knows and we don't) I would just continue to play him in the same role he thrived in all season.
Yes, but apparently Miller has been injured 3 years in a row, but only in the play-offs LOL
So over his next 82 playoff games you would expect him to continue at this rate and score 2 goals (1 in 39 games so far) and not more like the 22 he's had each of the last two regular seasons?

Are you implying his only value in this series has been via the scoresheet? No one believes he will continue to score at the pace he has.
He's played a very good overall game. He saved a tap in goal on the backcheck last game. He's turned pucks over on the forecheck. He's drawing penalties and frustrating the sens. The puck is actually in the offensive zone when he's been out there.
He needs to be in the lineup because his impact in this series has been big. Positively that is. Ottawa has even made personnel decisions based on his presence.
Just monitor his ice time and make sure he's not caught in a situation like the tying goal.
Miller has been total ass. He looks worse and has been less effective than when Rick Nash was having bad playoffs.
Kreider is injured this season as well. Peculiar that
I'm not sure what Miller's problem is, but he's definitely not the player he was in the regular season. Frustrating for sure.
That Cyrgalis article was straight fire and I love it. Also, whoever wrote the headline is amazing.
