lotta people better start apologizing to Mr. Hextall is all I can say

Umberger was awful for his first ~15 games.

But since then he has pretty much done what he was brought here to do... play decent defensive hockey on the 3rd line and chipping in now and again offensively, giving Schenn in particular a chance to play more with the big guns.

that's why you dont judge based on 15 games.

Wow! A penalty for a player against Voracek!

That has not happened for like ~20 games seemingly... the refs usually see 93 and seemingly think players are allowed to go for a piggyback ride.

maybe. the people who weren't ok with it would never shut up about it though so it seemed like there were more against it than for it

In fairness....Hartnell has 26 points and RJ has 12. Let's not pretend they have been equal offensively.

Well neither one of them are exactly playmakers, their main uses are standing in front of the net so people can shoot pucks off of them.

Agreed...but certainly offensively, Hartnell has been better. That was all I was pointing out.

Just showing the goals make it seem like the 2 have contributed the same...which they have not.
