ah...the reason green is off the power play.
"“He’s an enigma,†Oates said. “I felt that in the course of the season people want that [offensive production] every night from him, and I’m trying to fight him back. ‘No, we just need you to be a solid player. The league is too good. You’re not going to score a goal every single night.’ It doesn’t work like that. I need him to be a consistent hockey player. The more we can get him to understand that will be good for us.â€
what makes green special is his offensive skill. oates doesn't want him to use it and when he cant get green to give it up and play his defensive system the way he wants it done, he takes him off the power play.
oddly green could play hunter's system just fine
Great post. Greenie is pretty much worthless if hes not on the pp and is restricted from jumping up in the rush. Dumb ass oates.
