    It isn't IMPO. Dahlin and Power both do it and Dahlin does it better. 

    I agree they both do it, but they are also frequently not in a position to do so because they cheat in when on offense.  The fact that Samuelson tends to stay home whereas the other two do not makes him a really good compliment that they sorely miss when he's not around

  2. He's so important because, sadly, his skillset is unique among our defenseman.  A defensive defender who can separate the man from the puck efficiently and then move the puck away.  IMO, his absence is felt more sharply because we simply don't have anyone else that is like him (yet).  They need another defensive defenseman in the top 4 so that we have redunancy in his skill set.. so we aren't screwed when he inevitably misses more games.

  3. saw this one pop up on twitter.. looks like neuchev is back on the mhl team for the playoffs.  coast to coast & taking on both defenders 😮

    edit:  looks like this is the third game of the series, but elite prospects also shows that he had a hat trick + assist in the first game.  idk how the second game went.

    Fact does remain that we are a team loaded with young guys with a few vets thrown in whereas these other teams are vet teams with a few young guys thrown in. Someone rightly pointed out that Power has far exceeded the amount of games he has played in last few years and yes the young guys looked gassed. That is not an excuse but rather the plain truth. This is a long grind to the finish line and without key players (Tuch) and with many clearly hurt (Dahlin among others) and with obvious need in goal we are what we are. Still like this team and it's future...just needs some work which I think we all know is pretty clear. There is no way KA or Meatballs does not see these obvious needs too.

    Thank you for the rational post.  Have seen a lot of doom and gloom here which isn't accounting for the larger picture
