For me, since I started this crap...

A. Blidh - Incomplete.
N. Bonino - C. One funny YouTube clip isn't enough for me.
J. Brodzinski - C+. Acceptable for what you are, I guess.
F. Chytil - Incomplete.
W. Cuylle - B+. Keep it up, Will.
B. Goodrow - F. Please go away.
K. Kakko - Incomplete.
C. Kreider - C+. Most nights I need much more.
A. Lafrenière - B. Most improved.
A. Panarin - A-. When you're good, you're great.
T. Pitlick - D. Pointless waste of a roster spot.
V. Trocheck - A. Kind of a career year.
J. Vesey - A. Couldn't ask for anything more from you.
B. Wheeler - F. You had a real solid career. You're just embarrassing yourself now.
M. Zibanejad - C-. Pissing me off from the word go. Ugh.
A. Fox - C+. Injuries aside, you're out of the discussion for league's best.
E. Gustafsson - B-. Slipping lately, but I was impressed at the start.
Z. Jones - Incomplete.
R. Lindgren - C+. I don't question your heart. I do question everything else.
K. Miller - C-. Too many more bad nights, and you'll find yourself somewhere else.
B. Schneider - D. Who are you even supposed to be?
J. Trouba - C+. Not my f***ing captain. Quit sniffing paint.
J. Quick - A-. A rare pleasant surprise for me. f*** you for 2014.
I. Shesterkin - C-. Therapy has worked wonders for me.

C. Drury - C+. DO SOMETHING.
P. Laviolette - B. We have many bigger problems that whatever is happening on your head.
P. Housley - B.
D. Muse - B.
M. Peca - B+.

F for everyone

 

[UnSandvich]

Not bothering with Drury or the coaches

A. Blidh- Inc
N. Bonino- F, G if i could
J. Brodzinski- Inc
F. Chytil- Inc
W. Cuylle- B+
B. Goodrow- D
K. Kakko- Inc
C. Kreider- C+
A. Lafrenière- A-
A. Panarin- B+
T. Pitlick- C (is what he is)
V. Trocheck- B+
J. Vesey- B+

Z. Jones- Inc
R. Lindgren- D+

J. Quick- B+
I. Shesterkin- C-

Priorities for now:
1. Get Bonino & Goodrow out of lineup
2. Fix or remove Zibanejad
3. Fix or remove Lindgren (possibly doable, honestly looked better with Gus than Fox)
4. Fix or remove Trouba

A. Blidh - not enough viewing time
N. Bonino - at required standard (just). He's a JAG Jagging it
J. Brodzinski - below required standard. let him go lead the Pack like he's meant to
F. Chytil - at required standard pre injury
W. Cuylle - performing above expectations. Just about the highlight of half season is how he as fit in
B. Goodrow - below required standard. Disappointing so far even factoring in injury
K. Kakko - below required standard pre injury. Hoping he can have a strong 2nd half
C. Kreider - at required standard. He's doing that thing where he disappears for large stretches then scores because he's Kreider. would kike to see more
A. Lafrenière - performing above expectations. Great first half. Now to improve that shot
A. Panarin - performing above (lofty) expectations.
T. Pitlick - at required standard (just). He's a JAG Jagging it
V. Trocheck - performing above expectations. Great first half.
J. Vesey - at required standard. could do more, needs opportunities to do more
B. Wheeler - below expectations but is serviceable in a lesser role
M. Zibanejad - performing below expectations and below required standard
A. Fox - performing below (lofty) expectations, but has been passable
E. Gustafsson - performing above expectations
Z. Jones - not enough viewing time. play the boy!
R. Lindgren - performing below required standard. the body is willing but the skill is lacking
K. Miller - performing below expectations and below required standard. Needs to develop a hockey IQ
B. Schneider - performing below required standard
J. Trouba - performing below required standard currently. Was ok to start the season
J. Quick - performing above expectations. very good first half
I. Shesterkin - performing below expectations and below required standard. disappointing season to date

C. Drury - has he performed? Hasn't had the ability to do much, which is partly his fault and partly that of those before him. 2nd half is where he needs to shine
P. Laviolette - above expectations but it's time to earn the $$
P. Housley - no idea what he actually does
D. Muse - - no idea what he actually does
M. Peca - no idea what he actually does, but those faceoffs are good!
B. Allaire - is the expectation and required standard...

S. Rosen - Bonino Bonino Bonino
J. Micheletti - at required standard
J. Giannone - is really good at pacing himself for 150 seconds
S. Valiquette - played goalie at some stage

In some ways the above is a bit harsh and influenced by the last 20 games of hockey. We were top of the league for much of the first 41 games so must have been doing some things right. Need to get back on track, get healthy and look at creating a roster that compete beyond this season

I don’t believe it, Joe, EdJovanovski gave us an F for our performance, sponsored by chase.

 

[huerter]

Chuck the fans on the report card.

Needs improvement:

Understanding the new meta
Appreciating PP1 for all of its eliteness
Stop talking about schmoints
Stop line numbering
Moderators staying above the fray of the donks
Stalkers reigning in their stalking

I don’t see any improvement on any of these fronts in the foreseeable future

D: Kreider
F: Everyone else

 

[DoTheBlue]

Chuck the fans on the report card.

That's easy. How many cups in have they seen in their life times?
Fans get an A+ just for sticking around.

 

[LokiDog]

Good:

Cullye, Laf, Bread, Trochek

Neutral:

Quick, Kreider, Miller, Lindgren

Bad:

Everyone else, led by Zib

 

[Crease]

I’ll do it differently and rank the main 22 by absolute performance.

Panarin
Trocheck
Kreider
Zibanejad
Lafreniere
Vesey
Cuylle
Wheeler
Bonino
Goodrow
Pitlick
(Kakko and Chytil N/A due to time missed)

Fox
Gustafsson
Trouba
Miller
Lindgren
Schneider
Jones

Quick
Igor

 

[huerter]

Cups schmups. Are Yankees fans not rick'd AF? Are Patriots fans not on monkey stilts? Are Blackhawks fans basking in their cups?

You chase your cup and see how long that eases the waters. I'm going after transformative excellence.

 

[DoTheBlue]

Points schmoints and cups schmups are the results of that transformative excellence.
