You're a passionate and knowledgeable Canes fan. If Defense is the issue...I have an idea that sounds crazy at first (admittedly), but I've seen him play a lot this year AND when you actually look at the numbers...it makes sense. Now...this guy isn't (and shouldn't be) on an PURE speed team...he's played REALLY well as a defensive Dman.
Olli Maata. Stay with me! CHI stinks. He's still a Plus 8. Has 86 blocked shots and 95 hits so far this year....That would rank him 2nd in both categories out of everyone on the Canes team as of today. No one said he's a burner, but CAR isn't the fastest team in the league either. Maatta playing on a PIT/TOR/COL/EDM is just a disservice to him and the team. Maatta plays a defensive physical game. He's cost controlled for 3 more years at $4M.
If you believe Defense and Physicality is the issue...why not?
