"just run into OV"
yeah that will stop Ovechkin
I mean.... if the guy running into him was Scott Stevens or Chara. Then yes.

Oh come on. His play can not be defended.
He has ovechkin along the wall. Ok, so smash him.or bump him. Do something. Instead he let's him fly by and puts his arm out and then after ovechkin screams by him nash is in full coast mode as ovi scores on a defenseless hank.

Are we seriously debating whether to trade mcilrath for drouin straight up when mcilrath can't even get into the lineup and guys like nash. Kreider. Hayes and miller can't buy a goal to save their collective lives ?
Seriously ?

Drouin for Dylan McIlrathr , Do you pull the trigger if thats the price??? I say in a Heartbeat.
Offense is the problem. Trade D for Drouin.
It's good value but it's basically the opposite of our needs.

Which is it Mac, Offense you stated or opposite of our needs? you confused me. Big Bird would be on the next flight to Tampa if that was offered.
LirlBecause Glass' requirements are literally to maintain an internal body temperature in the 90s.
Stalberg has more goals (6) and assists (8) this season alone than Glass has had the past two seasons combined. Plus he's got wheels, and he can kill penaltys. But yea definitely Stalberg should be cut

In this one case Off the crossbar is right. The side boards were right there. Nash is 240 pounds. He can't just let OV skate right by him untouched. If Nash would have put any type of body on OV that would at least slow OV down. That was horrible defense by Nash.

lol at "McIlrath can't even get into the lineup"
AV would play Girardi over Chris Pronger.
Nash was trying to poke the puck off his stick to cause an odd man break the other way, he pulls that poke check off all the time on the boards. It didn't work here because it was Ovy with a full head of steam, not really sure what we realistically expect any forward on our team to do there in that situation. It's easy to say he should've bodied him, but come on, cut him a little slack it's friggin Ovechkin barreling in full speed, Nash isn't a defenseman we can't expect him to perfectly angle him into the boards.
The biggest problem with that play is Stepan missing the wide open net.
good lord. seriously ? nash is forgiven for attempting the stevie wonder defense there cause stepan something something.... ??
and the "trying to poke check it away to start an odd man break the other way" trick. that never works.
he was playing the exact same defense that marc staal uses.
if you watch that play, theres so much fail there its both funny and sad but probably more sad. nash really avoids all contact with mr ovechkin, even though ovi chooses to go to the left towards the wall where smart forward would have cut him off atleast. had he cut to the middle of the ice, i could maybe see it, but no. nash failed by not even attempting to put a hip into ovi.
you forget our Capt McD in your story(,after flying by Nash ) then OV cut in on him and slid the shot between his legs to our defenseless(not) Hank.
