Some of you guys need to get over the Hodgson trade.

You guys are out to lunch if you think Hodgson is the savior who would carry this team and make it go 3-0.

He is a liability. His defensive game is horrible. His fate was sealed in the Detroit game. Yes, he scored a "clutch" goal, but was responsible for 2 Red Wing goals.

Don't get me wrong, he's one hell of a player but Hodgson would be eaten
ALIVE against the likes of Richards, Kopitar or even Stoll. Pahlsson isn't doing too great and he's a legitimate checking centre! Everyone knows that Hodgson had trouble when matched up with bigger players and that's what the Kings have, a whole lot of big, physical centres that are also extremely skilled.

He was playing sheltered minutes on the third line and would have barely any shifts under AV anyway.
