Kane and Ovi play some semblance of defense or physicality when it comes to Ovi. They don't just ignore defense altogether. Gusev WILL have to learn to play defense when he doesn't have the puck instead of just waiting for linemates to do it then feed him the puck.
Defense is often about effort. And so far, Gusev just has not shown near enough effort without the puck. And taht is what people have issues with.
Why Their Defense Doesn't Matter for Patrick Kane and Alex Ovechkin
