I don’t see OTs going our way very often this year. Trying to figure out what Wilson was thinking that one play when he had possession. Honestly I don’t think Wilson belongs out there 3 on 3. Not suited to his game at all.
And yet Dowd was twice as effective as 20, who was a giveaway machine. I don’t mind Dowd being out there. Anyway, he wasn’t on for the goal against. It was Kuz, the high event playerWell, the combos Laviolette chose for the OT other than russian trio kinda baffled me. Dowd had no business seeing the ice time. The way Carlson played this game I wouldn't have trusted him either. And Samsonov once again looked shaky and out of shape. They need to ship him out and the sooner the better.
Give me a break. That isn't Sammys fault. Ovi let his man get position.Sammie has to have that.
Agreed. Wilson didn't make a mistake there.What are you talking about? When he curled off at the blueline? He did that because his linemates were changing and he was about to change so OT1 could get on the ice.
Defensive zone faceoff win, led to possession. He should have went straight off the ice though I stead of staying on.Agreed. Wilson didn't make a mistake there.
My question is. Why is Dowd playing 3 on 3?

I have to wonder if Eller should be put back as 3C and CMM tried at 2C or Wing if it's too much responsibility. Right now only the 1st line is producing consistently.
It’s not a possession game. In OT I want guys who either hold the puck well (he doesn’t) or who are quick. What’s his game? Good defender and a little of everything offensively but nothing he particularly excels at.How is it not suited to his game? What is his game?
Glad you clarified why he wasn't starting.I suspect he's just simply a bust.
