Yes, but I was talking specifically about the development of events if they take Kasper at 7. Well, what to do, the trade did not happen and I will not tear my hair out because of this, I am very pleased with our draft, we move on.
I'm sure they were pretty awful to work under, but I think him being emotional was a moment of thinking about Kim. No doubt Kevyn Adams seems like an awesome boss who really let's everyone be involved in the process though.
They probably didn't like Leksands very much, but by the way they also took Ostlund, who plays in Djurgardens. I hope they don't hinder its development.
That's what I figured. I'm not sure how public her condition is, but I heard from a guy who works somewhat adjacent to the org that it was pretty bad.
On the flip side of the coin, everyone thought the center Grigorenko drove his line in the Q, when in retrospect it wasn't true.
I'm sure there are certain analytics that somewhat correlate to line drivers sparsely, but like any stat numbers don't really tell the full story when there are so many variables involved. Off. zone entry % is probably a good start, but I'd bet every team has their own things they specifically value.
Gotcha. So in short, "driving the line" is jujst an opinion that can't be measured or proven. Everyone has their own definition of what that even means.
I was speaking mostly from what I was seeing subjectively, but if you wanted to put some numbers behind it I imagine you'd want took at:
I just assumed it was true because his skills never carried over to any other setting besides the Q, while his linemate has made every center he's played with since then look just as good as Greg looked. Kind of easy math there, though as I said earlier, it's not so easy for me to determine who's driving play a lot of the time. Sometimes it's obvious, but often it's not -- especially when you don't know what the coach is asking each player to do.
I was thinking more of Kucherov, who he played on a line with for two of the world junior tourneys. I mostly only saw highlights of the actual season under Roy.
Greg was a very good Q scorer on his own and played with Erne and Duclair mostly, then Logan Shaw and Duclair. He did play a couple of games in the Q with Kuch when the Remparts were trying to figure out what to do with having three imports - they chose to keep Sorenson and Grigorenko and dealt Kucherov off to Rouyn-Noranda. Both had already been drafted (2011 for Kuch, 2012 for Greg) when they had their brief reunion in Quebec City.
Ah, okay, I was thinking you were talking about their fling together with the Remparts.
Also, I hear you on memory. I haven't written a check in almost three years and have no idea where (or even if I have) a check book for my online account any more.
