Quote from Meltzer:
"Noah Cates is playing the same way now when pucks aren't going in (0 points last 9 games) as he did when he put up 17 points (9g, 8a) in 19 games between Dec. 10 and Jan. 18. Approach is the same, still hustling up chances for himself and linemates. Just no payoff."
Cates is is scoring at 1.34 P/60 at 5on 5 this season. Only Farabee was lower out of the 12 regular forwards.
Yeah but where’s the culture per 60 stat? Cates is getting 45 million dollars in the offseason.
