And yet, the results are all that matter. What you see, or what you say about Laine’s game, does not in the context of measurable scoring stats. What’s so hard to understand about net results? To score more than getting scored on while on the ice?
You don’t seem to grasp the concept of what ”net” means in this case, and maybe not even what decides the winner in icehockey. It’s the team that scores more than the opponent that wins, and Patrik Laine contributed to more goals for than against and was a top player on his team in that category. You may not have liked how he looked out there while he was doing it for the Jets, but that doesn’t change the fact that Laine was a net positive for the majority of his time on the Jets.
