i think dale hunter did beagle a diservice by overusing him and by superimposing his ice time with ovechkin's to the point of the ridiculous. as a shutdown center seems to me beagle earned his spot. by benching ovechkin and skating beagle every other shift hunter made beagle the punchline of a joke.
in a balanced approach i would expect to see beagle skating 15 minutes in ties or wins and 12 minutes in games they are behind.
