lmao no he doesn't, he enter teh zones from the board, he is too big to be moved and everytime it works.
it's trolling to point out this trade bombed? I get you're trying to position it as "Domi taking longer to get there" but the reality is he's a terrible fit and he isn't doing a massive turn around in columbus and certainly not under torts
I mean there's also the eye test... anderson has looked very impactful up and down the ice and Domi has looked lost and a turnover machine. his underlying numbers are also brutal
His shot % is 8% higher than his 6 year average, so it's questionable whether he'll stay that high in the goal scoring race.
I feel compelled to point out that the bolded was exactly one (1) guy. Not "CBJ fans" - one guy.
Technically there was a little more nuance to it than that, but it's still close enough that I'll take the L for that one for the time being. Altho if Domi does bounce back I reserve the right to claim we've gone into overtime and I haven't actually lost.
The same could be said about Matthews, Toffoli, Boeser, Brown, Scheifele, Pavelski, Couture, Connor and Van Riemsdyk , Marchand, Gaudreau, Stamkos, Dvorak, Pastarnak, Backstrom, Kreider, Pageau which all have a higher or similar s% than Anderson currently and are ahead or tie with him in goal this season.
Funny how most of the guys you named play in the Canadian division. Could bad defense and goaltending play a part?...
since when is what I posted raving? I posted some stat lines saying this aged really bad in trade value. seems you are sensitive to try and overcorrect the narrative or disprove it otherwise. I'm not saying Domi is terrible but I get columbus wasn't happy with anderson's injury history and production recently, it was just more of a boggling decision to take domi in return for him knowing his style of play, columbus's current head coach, and the existing gripes Domi had about his own perceived role in montreal
anderson is a power forward though, his goals are the result of him driving the net and getting dirty, which always result in higher shooting percentages. if this was a finesse player just sniping the back of the net at a high rate, sure. but he was finally healthy after a long layoff and looked like a bull. if anything I would be less worried about shooting percentages and more worried about holding up that style of play and tenacity to body his way to the net
No doubt the Canadian division is weaker defensively and in front of the net, but this thread is about Anderson vs Domi.
Actually, this thread is about Domi's contract extension.
