Wideman- STEAL of the deadline...wow.
I was a little skeptical of this, but he really has been wonderful...
I hope he keeps it up, and you are right, Green wilts under pressure, but this year Green won't have to do anything but skate his normal shift. Wideman will do the rest!

Greenie has really taken a step backward since the Pinz series 2 years ago after that 31 goals reg season.
In that series, the Pinz really got the puck deep & pounded on him.
Hurting him physically & mentally.
Since then, that is the m.o. for most team against this team & Greenie.

@Rocc00 - one thing I've noticed about Green, even in that first year of BB, was that teams targeted him and were slamming him around pretty good. I think someone needs to work with him on technique in those confrontations because it seems he doesn't always technically know how to position himself to absorb hits or partially avoid them. The Stepan hit was a good example: there would've been nothing there but Green came at the guy leading with his jaw...
