The "faceoffs don't matter" argument is from like 2015. It's over.It happens more often than that and the comments are a direct result of people pretending fow doesn't matter. If you want to say the margin from 48 percent to 52 percent isn't Earth shattering I can buy that, but the issue is that for almost a decade we have not had a guy that is a situational ace in the dot to help this team. For how long our best/go to faceoff guy has been a 4th liner
It's a possession league and fow directly leads to possession. The notion that they don't matter is archaic...Don’t forget set plays that are vital to a face off win.
We used to do it with Kreider, even deep in our end, just to use his speed for a break away. Grabner too in his 27 goal year.
Not to mention a set shot with little time left that all depends on a face off win.
The notion that having possession off the draw anywhere on the ice is somehow unimportant is just foolish.
I’m filled with alcohol lolhow wasn't that bag of snakes eaten by the 10 minute mark in the first?
Will Jacob Trouba ever score?
Then ignore it when people complain. Situationally they absolutely matter in a possession based league/game.The "faceoffs don't matter" argument is from like 2015. It's over.
Something is rotten in the organization.How are all of our young guys terrible?
Nobody is arguing with you.Then ignore it when people complain. Situationally they absolutely matter in a possession based league/game.
