So what's your point? Is it your assertion that these three players are better players than Couturier?
not at all. coots is clearly better than those guys.
I just found it to be a very alarming stat that is all.

If you used that "context" thing I've mentioned you wouldn't find it remotely alarming. You'd have an understanding.
However, it's all been explained to you numerous times and you choose to reject it. Wonder why.
ok cool. So the fact that coots has scored in 1 game in his entire 300 minutes on ice is justifiable. Glad to see that you are so unbiased. meanwhile 30 other teams and fans would be ridiculing the player and not the person who brought this stat to light.
Still rejecting context that would let you understand the stat? Cool.
No agenda though lol.
Get real. Our fanbase turns on players in a heartbeat. Look at Giroux last year. Simmonds this year. Hell, Voracek gets slammed repeatedly. People don't turn on Couturier because they understand why his numbers are his numbers. They understand his value. You choose not to.
in the 11-12 cup run. Martin Brodeur recorded 4 assists. That is equal to the amount of career playoff points Coots has.
Keep ignoring the reasons. Keep avoiding anything that prevents you from hating Couts.
If you could just for one second acknowledge that this is the first playoff series where he has even had a chance to score,.
you're right . context. That 11-12 devils team was a high powered offense dynamo.
Because that is blatantly not true. Other 3rd liners have scored. Other 4th liners have scored. If he's never been used before now with a chance to score, then how did he score in the 1 game he did score in? I mean, that proves that he CAN score in that role..... he just can't do it well.
But again, in the history of the playoffs, plenty of players have been better than o pts in 18 games playing on the 3rd line. This dude might have an agenda, but denying the basic fact: Courturier hasn't been a good playoff performer.... just makes you look like you have your head in the sand.
it was sarcasmExcept he's centering a scoring line with Giroux on the wing.
If he's better deployed as a defensive specialist, then slot Giroux back at center.
Can you show me a link that shows that he had the hardest minutes, worst quality of linemates and hardest competition. I'm not questioning your source, but I'd like to look at it.In those series he had the hardest usage in the league in those years. No other 3rd or 4th liners were playing minutes like his, especially when you account for quality of competition and quality of linemates. Strict defensive zone starts. No PP time.
All of Coot's playoff points have come on April 13th in Pittsburgh.
Both times were Friday the 13th.
Jtown you truly are a master of the reverse jinx.
Jtown, everyone on our board is sick of this crap so don’t bring this here. Just stand at home screaming at the wall like you used to.
just because the flyer fanbase does not want to acknowledge unflattering stats about our team/ players don't mean that they should go unannounced.
