No it's called a fact.
By those in whose opinion it was proven.
Facts are measurable and verifiable. Your opinion is neither - which doesn't prove it wrong. But it remains opinion.

My opinion for this season is limited to his 13 games played. Thought the last few games he played were solid. He was skating faster, making faster decisions and just playing with better pace.
He still struggled with digging pucks out of corners and along walls, where he gives up size and strength.
I had an opinion on petan.By those in whose opinion it was proven.

I hated the idea of having him in our lineup but dammit he's put up 6 goals since Jan 1st. That's 5 more than Laine. So I guess he's sort of growing on me now.
Yeah, agree with your take. I also think he supported well defensively so I can see why he would have decent stats in terms of limiting chances against.
Still wish we'd gotten to see him in more games this year.
Maurice will play players he trusts to do what is expected of them in a given situation. He knows with 2 minutes left with a 1 goal lead that Lemieux will bust his ass to help his line gain centre then dump it deep and chase. He knows he won't stop up and try to saucer a pass through 2 defenders in the neutral zone.2 minutes left and fourth with a shift. Where was PoMo?
I’m not sure our fourth line is our fourth line lately.Anyone else noticed that our 4th line is a combined +38 ? Wonder how that compares with the rest of the league.
How is that a given situation for Lemieux? He makes that same play all game, regardless.......Maurice will play players he trusts to do what is expected of them in a given situation.

There is Brendan Lemieux and the rest of the 4th line. Lemieux is all over the place.Fourth line is bizarre. There's an organized chaos....I wouldn't say they play like a cohesive unit, but it's working lately.
I'm not sure why this is, though my sneaky suspicion is that all paths lead back to your like or dislike of Maurice.So many salty Lemieux haters. Must bring you to your knees when he scores

I’m not sure what to make of Appleton just yet. There are some very astute posters in here and I would love to know what you see as this kid’s upside potential.Appleton is the bigger story, no haters and no high ranking thread

Haters?So many salty Lemieux haters. Must bring you to your knees when he scores
Why must everything be so one side or the other. Seems so simplistic.
Throwing up a GDT, Gin?The internet does not allow for nuance - pick a side and crush it, dammit.
I blame SMS / twitter char limits.

You got to let it go bro, Petan was given 15 games this year did nothing. He also has had time playing with Blake wheeler, power play time and his line mates were armia and dank btw. Lemmy is just the better player for that role. Sit back relax eat some popcorn and just let him go dude cause you are wrong on this one. You can argue all you want but end of the day he's been given ample opportunity and puckUhhhhh .... no. He still has only proven to be unable to produce on that 4th line with Thor. Does this post prove you are unable to use a shift key?
How he would be doing this year with Copp and Appleton is unknown. Never been tried.
