Apparently it was Goring who said that lmao.

Reminds me of the Mango mantra - its nice G is scoring points but the team needs to score goals

If you replace math with Meth it will crack you up. I was disappointed to see that i misread what you accidentally wrote.

Also = play the best defensemen in the organization.
Also = hire a competent coaching staff.

GF%: 41- Gudas (66.67) | 56- Sanheim (60) | 74- Folin (53.85)

Wow Gudas!

Let’s just point one thing out... Gudas and Sanheim have the best offensive attributes, yet they’re the least used!

 

[deadhead]

Gudas and Sanheim were getting relatively sheltered minutes, but as Sanheim improves, that should change.
I have never figured out how someone can look as bad as Gudas and put up such nice metrics.
Then again, Folin may have the best metrics of all the D-men this year. Go figure.

Guess has been really solid and he hasn’t reverted to borderline physical play

Story of his career.

There are times when he's looked appropriate, but he's never looked as good as his stat lines. Whatever, a good job that looks ugly is still a good job.

 

[Audible Velvet]

Travis is so good, everyone benefits when he's on the ice.
Not that Radko is a slouch.
Remember when everyone knew that pair was excellent? Yep.

You mean early last year?

Though, at that point it chiefly showed in stats because the eye test showed goofiness. Nonetheless they were doing work.

Gudas did this before Sanheim joined the team.
So it's more likely he's been carrying Travis, not the other way around.

Everyone who has played with Sanheim has seen sharp improvement. Not just Gudas.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

I thought Gudas was very good two seasons ago; poor last season; and is back to being good again this season. His mobility is much better than it was last season. I don't know if he was hurt last season or if he just got in better shape, but his skating is quite noticeably better. He's a good player when he's on his game.

This reeks of a preconceived notion bent around a false narrative. Surely you can smell it?

You made no hesitation to say Gudas was poor last year. To some extent, he was; certainly a down year at least. And yet, he did very well with Sanheim (only Sanheim) last year. So, was Gudas poor or not poor when he "carried" Sanheim last season? Meanwhile, every player performed/performs better with Sanheim. Why don't you run the numbers you are fond of posting when it fits your narrative, deady? Methinks the easier argument is: Gudas is a good player and Sanheim is a better player. I'm sorry that Sanheim is refuting everything you've written about him and you can't acknowledge the simplest explanation, sir.

Sean Couturier definitely isn’t healthy:
- 1st Graphic=current season
- 2nd Graphic=5v5 Unblocked Shot Rates Against from the previous 3 seasons

 

[deadhead]

Just look at his xGF the last three seasons and this year, he didn't suddenly forget how to play defense.

 

[Magua]

I've defended Gudas as much or more than anyone on this sub-forum, even off a horrendous game 6. That part wasn't my issue.
