I wonder if that's their thinking as far as playing Del Zotto on the right side. He had a nice shot in the first period from the circles, and he had the goal from the same general area. He has more net to shoot at as a left hander at the right circle, but it just takes so much away from his passing game and his ability to stick handle at the point.
If he were a shoot-first kind of defender, it might make sense, but him on the right side just seems to take away some of his strengths to play to his weaknesses.
I really wish one of the reporters would ask AV about his thinking on that.
