I didn't catch this game so I can't gauge how DD played, but your overall assessment of him is wrong. He might have had a bad game, but he has been solid tis season. He actually has a pretty good set of hands on him and actually excels t passing. I think Richardson has been using him a lot more than he is used to and that is leading to some volatility in his play. So far this season he has been the best player on the ice or at least one of the best players on the ice on number of occasions. Other games, he struggles a bit. He is still raw, but he has some solid potential. If you listened to what Tim Murray said about him, the organization felt he was very raw when they got him and maybe not ready for the AHL but they kept him there all season. Since then his play has progressed and he now has a real shot of cracking the sens roster as a bottom six guy. The more consistent his play gets, the better chance he will have of being a full time NHL player. He does have NHL potential, you will just have to see him play more to notice it.
It was my first time watching him, so like I said it could just be the game. But overall his passing was off. He threw a couple right up into the mid section of some people and also had difficulties corralling the puck. He wasn't too impressive to me. I could see him slipping into a 4th line role at best. Some people on here were calling him a potential 2nd liner at best, to me we're lucky if he ever graces the 3rd line.. But once again I stress, this is the first time I was able to actually catch a Bsens game this year. Overall it was nice seeing guys like Prince, Pageau and Petersson for the first time. There isn't too much opportunity to see these guys out in Vancouver.
Was that the game where you could "dump" the puck between the red-line and blue-line for an automatic goal everytime?
Something like that.
You could freeze the goalie to one side of the net if you kept going back and forth behind it. It was the easiest way to win games. You could also make players bleed by hitting them.

I think the glitches were a little different depending on whether you played it on super nintendo or sega genesis. On the SNES you could score pretty easily just by ramming into the goalie while carrying the puck.
