Dorsett did fine at LW when he was playing with Horvat and Hansen. He's there to bring energy, switching sides shouldn't be a significant detriment in that regard.
they got killed in possession.

Horvat's zone starts have also gone down significantly during the month of april.
Yea, I noticed that too due to the your post game post with the corsi stats. They went down drastically.
http://www.puckalytics.com/superwowy.html still has the line at 55.1% CF from march 15 to april 15. a string of four bad games is not a big deal, because everyone has good and bad games

They did, but ...
When Kenins first joined the line, the possession stats for the Horvat line improved noticeably and immediately, while the line Dorsett joined suffered.
In the last couple of weeks of the regular season, though, the Horvat line, with Kenins, also got killed in possession, often worse than the Vey line. Anyone wanting to check can look at the game by game results on naturalstattrick.
I don't know what it all means and am just pointing out that it wasn't just when Dorsett was on the line that it struggled with possession-related stats.

This thread *should* be blowing up about now...
Matthias left wing, kills penalties. 18 goals yet at end of a close game when Kenins comes out for defensive reasons Dorsett (right winger and who doesn't kill penalties) goes into Kenins left wing spot and Matthias sits; what's with that!! Almost get the feeling Willie is scared to show Matthias on Horvat's left side because we'd all realize it made sense a long time ago.
Kenins is better than Matthias and is younger. He also isn't soft like Matthias.
