3rd line numbers, but expected to play a 2nd line role. If we had a legit top-6 player that would keep him on the 3rd line, he'd probably be better thought of since he's shown well in the playoffs. Has more shots per game in the playoffs than the regular season.
To be fair, he's pretty good on the forecheck and competes in battles along the boards fairly effectively for his size. Does have speed.
Shooting percentage tells a pretty good story since the rest of his numbers are staying consistent for the most part. God only knows shot attempts that missed the net. Doesn't hit as much (half the hits the last few years than the first few seasons).
Unfortunately, this is what he is. A typical Mid 6 forward who contributes at a predictable pace and after 7 years in the NHL there is likely nothing left to grow in to.
Trade bait but how many teams will pay a salary that is average for a Mid-6er? Holmstrom looks like he could replace him at less money.
