You can't defend McDavid on the rush 1 on 1, the forwards are the ones giving up the gaps and allowing him to build up the speedMikey's been solid all year long. You're going to trash him for getting burnt by the 2 most dynamic players in the league?
I remember years ago Fox, Nixon, Blake and everyone down the line on the Kings org denied that.Jim Fox pretty much said this Kings team is soft and they’re not built for physical hockey, and we’re seeing them absolutely get manhandled here in the opening period.

Better to watch than kings hockey. Butt could be bigger though.
Not saying he's a world beater. But he's not a liability. Not many dmen can stop him in every shift.I love Anderson, I think he is an ideal guy to be the shutdown guy on your 2nd pairing.
But against the type of players you are going to see every series in the playoffs he is overmatched as a 1st pairing defender.
