Who is our best forechecking winger?

Alfredsson is a beast in the corners. Condra is also great at coming off the boards in possession of the puck. Neil is awesome at grinding in the corners, but I find he intimidates without necessarily taking possession of the puck.

Da Costa is sneaky in the offensive corners. Needs to improve his support against the opposing forecheck, breakout, and neutral zone positioning though.

Anyways, it's Alfie. His chips into the corner are impeccably placed whether he retrieves them or his linemates, and he has the best body positioning, and awareness of angles by far.

Condra is our best forechecker. Greening WOULD BE if he would use his bleeping size and keep his eye on the puck. He almost always loses sight of the puck between his skates along the boards.

Basically this. After Alfie.
