Both Tierney and White played decently last game, but there was one particular play involving White where he entered the zone, faced opposition from two guys, so he turned and cut across the zone, taking both guys with him, before passing to the outside winger who then sent it in front of the crease for a tip by the other winger.
It was a near "tic-tac-toe play" (as described by the announcer) that would have resulted in a gorgeous goal but what was great about it was White's decision not to simply drive forward but use the space available to buy himself and his linemates room to maneuver.
Hopefully someone else remembers this so I don't sound like a crazy person.
Again, it sort of reminds me that he can make plays happen when he plays with confidence. He'd had that kind of confidence going right as he was injured IIRC which was a pretty cruel blow.
In summary, I still think he has more potential than Tierney, and while he's not earning his contract right now, I think his style of play fits in with the kind of team we are building.
