I'd play Holland on the third line, he's showing glimpses of goodness. McClement while he can sometimes create a puck possession game in the offensive zone, is usually dead tired sometime later in the game and takes a penalty because of it.
McClement will never be an offensive forwards, Holland can develop into a good one. Play McClement stictly as a 4th liner and let the younger skilled center play between Kuli and whoever.
Holland hasn't been bad by any means, I just don't think he's being given an opportunity to play with big minutes.
He played a top 6 role for what...3-4 games? and he got a goal in that time. He has one less point then McClement so far, and now he's been stuck in a 4th line playing 3 minutes because we have goon McLaren playing.
Coming over from another team, it will take more then 3 games to show what you got, and he hasn't played bad enough to cost us games either. Don't know why he's playing on the 4th line instead of McClelement.
ita. i don't get people saying he's looked horrible and he'll never be an NHLer. i mean he hasn't been fantastic but he's had some nice moments. i feel like he could be good for us. anyway i won't just write him off after a few games or anything.
