He's had more than one bad game this season, though.
The entire Leafs team outside of the 3rd line was ****ing terrible in the first game against the Wings for example.
You don't project the last 10 games over the entire season.
The whole team was tired.. He has had a few bad games, and they are normally when the whole team plays bad. The point is that over the course of 30 games, he has played very very well as a 2 way C. There are a few games here and there where he didn't play his best, but all players have off nights.
My point is people choose to focus on the 3 or 4 bad nights he has had in his 30 games, and say he isn't a good player. At 24, if he can have a season with a high level of play and 10-15 off nights, that's all you can ask for.
If Kadri scored a hat trick in 3-4 games and didn't score any other time, people wouldn't claim he is a good goal scorer, they would say he can't score consistently. So why does 3-4 bad games mean he is a bad player, shouldn't that mean he is consistent?
Only people who don't understand this are people who don't like the leafs or Kadri.
