Alzner's always Be. SOLID.
He's better than Emelin, unless you think Emelin was more solid than I don't know what to tell you. There is an unnatural hate for this guy, I don't get it. But to each, their own and I respect a lot of peoples opinions but I won't argue with people who have already made up their minds as there isn't really a point.
But honestly, Alzner's not the problem, the holes in 2 and 5 are the problems and everyone is playing ahead of themselves and the results speak for themselves.
Every defenseman is playing a slot above where they should be playing, and then some. Beaulieu is miles better than Streit, Davidson and I'll even concede Benn at this point. Lot of teams made side deals with Vegas to keep the guys they needed as there were no better alternatives, we did not. Markov played so many important minutes. and we just let him walk. He wasn't going to play for any other NHL team, and we let him walk. If Mete doesn't surprise everybody but some very astute HF posters and Dale Hunter and make this club, Brandon Davidson is playing in the top 6 right now, and a lot of these guys you hate are all moved up
another spot. Think about that over coffee, this was planned.
That's the problem.
