Mac also seemingly got thrown out of the face off dot in 50% of opportunities…

I've noticed that too

Are there stats for this? He was thrown to a lot last season as well IIRC.

I’m working on a project where I track ~15 variables for every single faceoff the Ducks take and I do keep tally of who gets kicked out. McT does get thrown out a bit more than our other centers, but it’s not a crazy amount. What I’ve noticed is some referees are significantly stricter on faceoffs than others. There are some games where like 1 or 2 guys get kicked out of the circle, and others where it happens all the time.

EDIT: I’ll write a more detailed analysis of what I’m tracking after game 15 or so.

Ya I was more referring to last season.

Not saying a waiver claim will solve our issues but Aman is very likely an upgrade to our depth. Decent size, good speed and gets after it which is something we need. Plays center and wing, plus he PKs

If he’s worth a claim at all, then he probably gets claimed long before us, unfortunately

I haven't adjusted to the Dostal era yet
