This guy looked a little tired last night. Not a knock as he's been great all season but has played a lot of hockey.
AB would love if Carb and co. could start resting these guys here and there. The players I would certainly rest would be Saks, Markov, Kovy, Rivet, Dandy and even Plecs.
Once we solidify a playoff birth, I would ease up and start resting players. Why risk further injuries to key players and burn out players to try to reach higher in the standings. Either way we're going to have to play a top level team. So why not try to do it with fresher legs than our opponents.
We could do some damage to a tired team especially with a rejuvenated defense.
key to all that posting is when the habs clinches a play-off berth, when they clinch, then rest all the players at different times for the remainder of the season!
