What has happened to Anthony Richard, btw? While we're all so busy piling on Tolvanen, Richard's production seems to have fallen off a cliff as well?
See Post #68, paragraph 5.
He attracts the attention of several teams. The refs have been bad in the last 2 Admirals wins and they don't call anything that happens to him.
Richard has 3 points during the 11 game win streak. I have seen 2 guys on him at even strength. It makes it hard to pass or shoot. His shot percentage is about half of last year and so is his point production. He is on a pace for about 24 points.
The Admirals may be missing Olivier and his face punching ability, but Richie isn't afraid to hit somebody back immediately. If he breaks a finger like Crosby did, maybe people will give him more space. He uses his speed, but other teams are expecting it and they move the puck faster when he is on ice.
