Hrivik's tenacity drives possession on the fourth line. Admittedly, Hrivik is even more vanilla than the King of Vanilla (Fast)...but they're keeping the puck away from the opponent more often than not when Hrivik is on the ice. Hrivik's Corsi is 2nd best on team next to Clendo and he is up to 13 games now...yet his possession stats are not regressing. He's actually playing perfectly for a fourth liner. Helping to keep possession of the puck while the scoring lines rest. What more do we need from him?
You beat me to this. Hrivik is fine out there. Hardly a passenger. In fact, he might still be playing when some of the other guys are ready to draw in.
