He's brutal. call up Ness, or deHaan. Make a trade for someone. Do something. Seems like every game he plays he's on the ice for at least 1 goal against.
He looks like he forgot how to play defense. What is worse is he won't fight anymore. He had a chance to get into it with Simmonds and let it go. It isn't like they need him for 5 minutes. Heck, it would be 5 minutes of Carkner free hockey. +1 to that.
Yeah Carkner is god awful and Donovan has been lost in his own end, that pair has been death. Giving De Haan a chance is the only thing I can think of at the moment.
MacDonald Hamonic
Hickey Martinek
De Haan Strait
Donovan
So you still want too see Amac as a top pair?
No I don't, but I'm not sure splitting them up will solve any thing. AMac has also been **** all year.
I have a soft spot for carkner but he's not doing what he's here to do which is intimidate. He is reminding me way too much of the enforcers the rangers have signed over the years who once they get a good contract they stop doing the one thing that made them useful. Martin I think is suffering a bit from that this year too.
The lineup the islanders iced tonight should have played downright nasty with boulton, carks, Martin, and clutter but they didn't
Carkner needs to be waived yesterday. It's hard to imagine someone could play worse defensively. It seems like every time he's out there the opposing team scores. And while Donovan has looked pretty brutal lately, I think that has been extrapolated by being paired with the god awful Carkner.
It's more than just Carkner. Besides Hamonic the rest of this D Corp is jagalicious.
Indeed. You think they'd shelter the kid and put him with anyone else EXCEPT Carkner. It makes too much sense.
