I honestly think there are times people don't consider him to be an "all the tools, no toolbox" type of player because of his talent.

I do think he's too talented to be considered a third line player, but I also think he has a lot of limitations to be counted on regularly.

Its not as though he is a 3rd liner by virtue of the various metrics, its that he only ever really thrives when playing with your traditional "3rd liner" types.

He just isn't much of a player when off of the puck.

Turcotte's trade value increasing very nicely this season

Byfield has one good game and everyone busts. Fiala has a good game and everyone talks shit lol.

He had a pretty shit game, at least no dumb penalties though...

With his contract it’s unlikely we move him whilst he’s trending up IMO. It’d have to be a decent piece(s) to consider it at this point. We need cheap cost controlled assets on the roster and he’s on a very team friendly deal.

Kempe is so good.

Most underrated player in the league when he's on his game

 

[Omni Owl]

Kempe is f***ing verified guilded goat tier. What a player, offence or D he does it all and is zoomy on top of it.

Even when he was playing his best hockey as a King, he wasn't very popular around here. This forum has a type of player it really likes and dislikes, and Fiala is certainly not the type of player many here have a soft spot for.

Kind of says a lot about 'this forum' then, huh?

I love Fiala.
