But the wolves only really come out when he plays with the plugs. To me it’s about putting him in a position to succeed, asking a 20 year old to carry 4th liners is a mistake. 1st liners should help carry the 20 year old so he gains confidence and improves playing with better players and that includes practice.
The following post shows that KK has had at least one scorer as a linemate for all his games but 11. That's 36 and we're not counting his PP minutes. And yes I counted Drouin as a non-scorer. What will be the next excuse that he needs two scorers?
Someone on twitter researched how much games he played with each of his 12 set of wingers. I know someone had asked for this info a few days ago, so here it is.
Toffoli-Kotkaniemi-Armia (6)
Toffoli-Kotkaniemi-Perry (8) (longest consecutive with 7 games)
Tatar-Kotkaniemi-Armia (4)
Lehkonen-Kotkaniemi-Armia (6)
Toffoli-Kotkaniemi-Anderson (2)
Toffoli-Kotkaniemi-Gallagher (3)
Drouin-Kotkaniemi-Anderson (8)
Byron-Kotkaniemi-Lehkonen (4)
Drouin-Kotkaniemi-Toffoli (1)
Tatar-Danault-Kotkaniemi (3) (wing)
Drouin-Kotkaniemi-Byron (1)
Anderson-Kotkaniemi-Perry (1)
I love how the person who got that info labelled KK as a "rental 3c"...
