Yet doesn't play defense and cherry picks at the defensive blueline...

that works in regular season, playoff hockey is completely different. Go back and watch game 1 and tell me what kind of positive effect he had on the game as a part of the greater team? The answer is almost always zero. The game changes in the playoffs and he doesn't change for it, as far as I am concerned the other team has a borderline power play when he is on the ice with his lack of defense.
