Just a Russian propaganda account

I agree.Dread_Pirate_Westley wrote:I think him and Shattenkirk complement each other well. I really don't want them out there versus anything but the other teams #3 line because their defense is suspect at best, but it's like having 5 forwards on the ice. Pair them with the Tarasenko line as much as possible.
Hunt > Gunnarson.
He's not good in his own zone. He's small and light, and can be manhandled by bigger forwards (IF and when he is actually where he should be to defend). His defensive awareness and play reading is weak, and so is the team's gap control when he's on the ice. He's a lot less effective on offence on The NHL level than PP specialists like Shattenkirk, and he's a couple levels down from even Kris Russell, and even more below them on defence (which is a weakness for both). He'd be exposed, badly in the long term, if The Blues were to use him regularly on The 3rd defensive shift. Using him on the 2nd would be an utter disaster.CaptSMRT wrote:I like him, good speed, good shot, mobile, good hands...what is not to like?
