MT is Pat Burns in this analogy?He's taking the right decisions with the puck. Something Eller is not doing right now, wasn't doing lately.
I think Eller is a true 3rd line center, that can produce in a good environment. Unfortunately, he needs more of a Jon Cooper-type coach than a Pat Burns-type.
At least the Habs can just ice the puck now.
Then maybe his place should be on the 4th line because DLR is playing better than him on the 3rd. Actually it might not be bad for him to play against some easier competition. With Thomas and Bournival that line could generate some offence.
He's in AHL. A year was being burned off anyways, I believe.
Plekanec with his redemption empty net. Good on him.
