I think what's hilarious is the assumption that last season is the norm for production for a lot of players.
- Improper off season.
- A lot players not in the best condition.
- So many issues with not seeing family and other circumstances.
- The entire league was f***ed for goals against average and save percentage that dates back to 2005-06 after an entire year wasted.
I think some blokes here blatantly ignore the f*** out of that. For a lot of players it was a blessing for the grind they endure, for a lot of others it was a bizarre occurrence of season.
So for the first time since 2019, we will see this league have a proper off season as close to 2019.
Let that sink in. 2019 is the last time the league had a proper off season with training camps and pre-season. You don't think that affects them? Try f***ing up your entire routine for a month, it still pales in comparison to theirs.
