RW/LW Vasili Podkolzin (2019, 10th, VAN) Part 5

[Artorius Horus T]

Also, as much as your head coach claims that he likes his game
he sure is not trusting him in key moments, when its time to defend a lead
or when opposition is pulling the goalie.

for example, when was the last time he saw the ice in this 3rd period?
8 minutes and 10 seconds of ice time, the fewest of all players, both teams

You seem vaguely obsessed with him. Not the same thing as hatred, but still kind of odd for a random young player.
He's playing okay, 4th liner if everyone is healthy. He doesn't play much late in close games for the same reason that he doesn't PK. He played most of the year in the AHL. He's a 22 year old grinding winger. Young guys who have his trajectory this year, on good teams, are usually used the way he's being used by RT.
Other than being picked #10 OA nobody in Vancouver has a problem with how he's playing. Except you.
