What makes Mittelstadt so bad is not just the points.

Colorado gets crushed when he's on the ice. Dead last amongst Avs in CF% (49.7%) and second to last in xGF% (44.1%) [min 25gp]. The only guy with a worse xGF% than Mittelstadt is Middleton, a sentence I could've never imagined writing 3 months ago.

Zibanejad playing over 20 minutes (27 shifts) against Canada, where he's matched up against MacKinnon or McDavid pretty much every shift, and coming out on top in 5v5 possession (20 CF, 11 CA) means something.

It's only one game, but I thought it was notable because a) he was playing outside of the Rangers system for the first time in forever b) his opponent was freakin' Canada.
My point is, he failed to score a single point in 27 shifts. Game is won by goals, not better corsi. If we traded for him, and comes out pointless playing against Edmonton, in a game we lost, will you be like, oh but he played against McDavid or Drai, so its fine?

We need players that can produce playing even against strong opposition. Ones that will end up held scoreless, wont move the needle for us. Already have such players on the team.

I read a rumor: if Carolina Huricanes can’t sign Rantanen, they could trade him. Teams on him are LA, Vancouver, Dallas and maybe Vegas.

Ugly for Avs

Oh, but his agent told the Avs they would have signed for the low 12s...but now he might be traded for the 2nd time in a year? How does his agent spin that?
 
It's Valentine's weekend fellas. Enough of the puns already, clean of your Smegna, clean the house, make dinner, get with your loved one and release some Siemens for your well being.
