Player Discussion Filip Chytil

[dangsLITE]

Chytil is Generational at receiving bad passes. Bouncing puck, skate to stick, puck behind drag thru the legs, he can do it all.

Honestly, maybe. I have never seen anything like it (esp from a barely 20 yr old)... uncanny really. Going to pay dividends as he continues to get stronger and more confident.

Perfect headman from Buch for a breakaway last night.

Avery looking at Arty with that **** eating grin as he walked into the locker room was one of the highlights of the HBO show.

Gaborik shaking his head is great too

Second only to Gabby's sheepish grin as he lugged his Christmas tree on his back through the streets of Manhattan like it was 1908

Ive brought up Matt Barzal a lot when I’ve talked about Chytil’s ability to carry the puck and shayna just posted a great chart here showing where he compares in zone entries due to his ability to skate the puck and make plays. This is a tremendous weapon to have at center ice for this franchise.

sounds like someone who should be playing with Kakko

Needs to learn breakaway dekes on the goalie. Other than that, I remain convinced that he's an offspring of Jagr.

You really don’t like this kid, huh?

No, it had little to do with Chytil.

It was a reference to a lack of objectivity. Shot% is why player A 'sucks' but not even a forethought for player B.

He's got them. He's a smooth motherf***er with the puck on his stick dw. He was just hoping to surprise the goalie with a quick shot.

Ive been banging this drum for a while. I just saw Shayna’s chart too now I can’t find it.

 

[pld459666]

What I like more than anything is that he took the demotion in stride, went to AHL and did man things amongst boys

Gets the call and keeps on stomping.

Big fan of this kid.

Yeah, Fil could always carry the puck across the line, it was some of his flaws in the zone and off the puck that was his problem but he's cleaned those up and gotten much better all around.

Thats a major, major plus.

Is that from last year? I know the sample is much smaller but do we have one from this year? Interested to see that

Something happened to you chart I was going to follow up on what possession entries means. Anything that's not a dump in?

Yup. Not all players, especially young players deal with adversity well.

He crushed that.

Let's calm down a bit here. Jagr scored 27 goals in his rookie year. That was the last time he netted under 30 for the next 13 years.

Maybe I am misreading the quote, but if Chytil could get half of Jagr's career production, I would sign up for that right now.
