Oh I'm not saying either Darth Gerber or Rayzor Ray are without fault, trust
me! But look at tonight's game - Boyle in his first game back walks all the
way through Neil, Corvo, Schubert and two other Sens players that I could
not see on the replays and puts one past Gerber that should have been
stopped. But my point is, both Corvo and Redden seem to be really slacking
of late, more so than others. I know Volchenkov and Phillips aren't doing
good either - the "shutdown duo" has been getting shut down far too often
and not earning their keep either. But when you have Redden at $6.5 mill and
Corvo at $2.6 this season as the top 3 highest paid D-men, I expect a lot
better!
And just to add insult to injury, Corvo blew it again on Tampa's second goal
just seconds after Alfie gets his 6th point of the game assisting on Robie's
re-direct! And now the Sens once again screw up by getting too fancy and
Gerber getting smoked! This is just sick!!
