Who would you rather have as part of your organization-Jarkko Immonen or Marcel Goc?
Goc is crazy overrated by sharks fans.
He has speed, but usually doesn't even come close to finishing.
Oh, and he is like the 3rd/4th best defensive forward on the team.
He's not overrated by anyone. He just doesn't score enough for you to notice him.
Goc is probably the best faceoff man the Sharks have as well as one of the better defensive forwards on the team (as a 23 year old). Yea, he is snakebitten around the net but scoring goals isn't his game. He is more of a setup type on offense and its kinda hard to rack up the points giving the puck (or not since they usually aren't around) to Patrick Rissmiller or Mike Grier. Add to the fact that he is the only forward on the team not to have spend anytime with on Joe's or Patty's line.
It's not a coincidence that nearly every game the Goc's line is called out for their effectiveness whenever they are out on the ice. However, to the fairweather fan, it means nothing if he isn't scoring.
He was the sharks first pick of the 2001 draft.
Maybe he has more potential then Wilson will let him show, but it would be nice if his ceiling was more than 30 points.
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills again...
