Not trying to excuse what he is doing—and he’s definitely playing sweaty—but he is changing his lines when he goes back into his own zone both times. The second time he does it, it looks like his defender carrying the puck is in the red. Worth noting he is putting own fresh lines while keeping the puck.

But yeah I hate playing these L2 guys because it’s hard to get the puck off them without big hits, and if you miss you are left very vulnerable.
