I wish he would be Rucchin. We all said he had a terrible year last year, now you are saying he is okay yet is playing no better than last year. Stepan gets more TOI than any forward on this team. For me, it's one of the most baffling things occurring here. Stepan is suppose to be one of the leaders, but he sure isn't showing it. You guys are complaining about OEL, Kessel, who both are outplaying Stepan by a wide margin, yet you give Stepan a pass. Stepan is not playing up to his contract. I'm done talking about Stepan.
Currently.... OEL is not playing up to his contract either.
But I’ve held off saying anything because he’s seems to be getting constantly worked on on the bench in recent games. Which makes me wonder if he’s trying to play through something?
But even a 50% OEL is better off for us than a 150% Ness or Lyubushkin.
