Well a different opponent sometimes calls for different counters
Maata isn't a crease clearer nor is he particularly strong on the boards 50/50 battles
So JJ's skillset may be what the doctor orders vs a heavy forechecking team like NYI
I disagree. JJ’s issue is getting overwhelmed by forechecks. He makes dumb plays and goes chasing behind the net all the time.
Olli at least allows us to outlet and transistion out of the zone faster and can actually hold offensive blue line.
Guarantee if we put JJ in we start seeing multiple odd man breaks when I counted less than 3 last night. ( and one of them was because of Letang falling on the shit ice at Nassau which is something I was worried about)
