[Frank Corrado] L’époque où les défenseurs restaient plantés sur la ligne bleue est probablement révolue.

I like Frank, but someone needs to teach him how to screen record and use something other then his laptop mic. He had some good points there but this recording with the phone things is brutal
Makes sense, mobile Dmen are the only way to break forechecks, traps and to open space in the Ozone with low to high rotations.
Why teams are ok with small D corps now so long as they are top flight skaters. There will always be inherent problems with the small blueline so it’s what makes players like Hedman in his prime so rare.
Uh, didn’t this change happen like 20 or 30 years ago? Every team has defensemen that do this… but you can’t do it too much, because one mistake, you get caught, and it’s an odd man the other way.
I’m a little surprised 2 of the top 3 scorer’s in NHL are defensemen
