Looks like a great pick hub Detroit. All the making of a solid two-way Defenseman. He might make the NHL out of camp.
Now, buckle in here: Last year just 14.5 percent of shots recorded by the NHL were deemed slap shots. That’s a massive year-over-year drop, and a staggering big picture decline, down to nearly half of what it was a decade ago.
Yeah, wow. He scored tons of goals this past season with the one-timer. Didn't even realize. In 16-17 for example just a few were with one timers and most wristers. Looks like the wrister hasn't really been working lately, and I guess that's why he scored so few goals in comparison to 16-17. So yeah, outdated info by me.Burns uses the one timer as well. On the PP he scored a lot of goals like this.
I would like to see how many dman goals are on slapshots and the shooting percentage of them vs wristers. Just because theyre in decline doesnt mean they should be
Agreed. Sub 40% advanced stats in a preseason game? Bust.He was pretty bad tonight...not sure what the praise is for. 39% xGF, 37% CF.

He's played a lot of games this preseason, including last night in Pittsburgh. His play outside of tonights game has been really impressive especially for an 18 year old.I mean the way people were talking about him in this thread made it seem like he dominated.

But whats his Corsi on Sunday games with early start times, after a full moon on the second game of a back to back when he didn't get at least 7 hours of sleep?
I watch a ton of hockey, and am all for using whatever tools you want to find value in players if thats what your into. But when I watch the game I don't use a spreadsheet to decide if he looked good or not, I use my eyes.

You know you can actually see the shots being taken against his team when he's on the ice right? Those numbers aren't just invented out of thin air.
"I watch a ton of races. I don't need any of that "MPH" nonsense, I use my eyes to tell me how fast a car is going."
I'm amused by the fact how upset the german commentators for the the Hawks-Eisbären game reacted when they got the news Seider got send to the AHL and started making up wierd excuses.
In general not really a surprise the Wings didn't keep Seider . He'll be very good but he's not ready for the NHL yet.

How tall was he before the growth spurt?Thought his skating and stick handling looked overall pretty clunky. But I guess it's understandable given that he apparently had pretty big a growth spurt recently.
But despite that overall clunkyness and rawness it's very obvious that he has a lot of talent. Going to be a good player I think. Not sure if it's this season though.
