Guessing you have never played but it's very easy to get confused about your defensive position in hockey. Attackers are constantly trying to confuse & disrupt defenders' positioning. Drag people off their optimal spot to open up some ice for someone else, shift people to suddenly overload a area's coverage, guys sneak into an open spots for quick bang-bang set plays. At the NHL level they have the timing on these plays down to split seconds.
See what else you can guess about my life... love the online people telling others what they did and didn't do.
I never played NHL or anywhere near that level... I suppose you did. I will also suppose that Domi isn't a beer league level so while the attackers are trying to confuse, I trust that he has enough skill and experience not to get easily confused. It's not like him playing center this season (whenver that happen) all of a sudden made him look like Domi of last year. My main knock on him is lack of passion, interest and making dumb plays and not making most basic ones.
