It's commonplace enough with the Jackets that you may notice just about every sum-up post by a Jackets fan includes some sort of "nice while it lasts" or "hope this continues" or similar disclaimer. Fingers crossed but none of us are holding our breath or anything.
Sample size, practically eliminated from the playoffs, and it's a contract year.
Yeah, why didn't Dubas just use GM Magic to make Nylander shoot at a totally-not-entirely-unsustainable 19.5%?
Bemstrom isn't peanuts, but even if he were, the fact that Nylander is currently having a hot streak does not suddenly raise his value above what it was at the time of the trade.
I'm lucky, I'm live in town.
Or slapping pee pees
Who your coach proceeds to give like 9-11 min of ice time.
How is it meaningless to him when he’s out there playing for his nhl career? He’s not exactly on the young side of 20 anymore. After this spell with Columbus, if it didn’t work out, you think he was going to get another look somewhere? Idk about that
Before his 2 goal game which put him above 20% he was at 17%. So unsustainable omg!!!
That's not even that bad. Even at 10% shooting percentage, his CBJ numbers are at a 25-goal pace.
Rasmus Asplund already broke out, had a season as a top 20 defensive forward in the league (in 2020-2021 Selke voting, at least), then faded away just as fast. The brightest stars among us sometimes burn too brightly and fade away too quickly.
He has that creep into his game still for short bursts but significantly better. Finally looks like a guy that wants an NHL paycheque and no longer ride the bus. We'll see if it carries over to next year or not
Yes?
It's also unlikely that his shot counts are sustainable. He's taken 41 of his 178 career shots with CBJ. He's played 12 of his career 110 games with CBJ so far.
Obviously not meaningless to him. Meaningless games refers to the team being outside of the playoff picture.
