Dario missed the point of that play. It's a set play they use where the wingers spread out high, takes the pass from the D, then skates back a tad towards their own end to draw the D man up away from his end. Then he spins towards the boards to protect the puck, and finally dishes to the speedy center (Nate or Dutchy) breaking up the middle. That's why it developed right off the opening faceoff.
If he beats his man up the middle, and Landy draws his D man up away from his end, and is able to get the pass cleanly through, then there's a potential one on one or breakaway for Dutchy or Nate. It's a change of direction/pace kind of play designed specifically for Nate or Dutchy at center.
Problem is as he says, Holden can't pass worth a damn and throws a grenade at Landy. Wouldn't' be surprised if he flubbed it and it was bouncing towards him.
