What's your report card look like?
Marchand A+
Pasta A+
Chara A+ (fountain of youth. seems to have cut down on the turnovers and is on pace for +38)
Halak A+ (2nd in sv pct, 3rd in gaa)
Bergeron A
Rask A (9th in sv pct, 6th in gaa)
Krejci A (on pace for 62 points and a +35 without anyone playing well on his wings)
Krug A
Carlo A (absolute monster defensively, love that he’s jumping into the offense more, but misses more shots than rich peverley)
Coyle A- (on pace for 60 takeaways, dominant possession player)
McAvoy B (plays massive minutes against top lines and is on pace for +27 but his offense has regressed)
Moore B+ (small sample but has played great)
Bjork B+
Gryz B (looks like a top pair defensemen when given the minutes, but has been relegated to 3rd pair most of the season)
Wagner B (one of the league leaders in hits, you know what to expect every game)
Nordstrom B (not my favorite player, but plays hard and smart)
Kuraly C (poor start, but looking good lately)
DeBrusk C- (goals, points, hits, takeaways… everything is down)
Clifton C- (was hoping for more)
Heinen D+ (struggling to find his game this year)
Lindholm D (placeholder)
Ritchie F (doesn’t play big when we need him, doesn’t score
Backes inc. (I don’t know what to give him. He rarely dresses and when he does he never plays. The handful of shifts I have seen I thought he looked pretty good but he gets benched faster than Heinen)
Agree? Disagree?
Can't argue with much here,maybe Gryz who I don't trust,and Chara I'd drop down to a B B+. Coyle is a great hockey player with a big hole in his game-offense,I'd give him a B.
