Overshadowed maybe.
Their results havent affected the value of what Fox has contributed.
Calder trophy not a big deal, always a bit random lately who the 3 finalists even are....
Overshadowed greatly and rightfully so. But, no. That does not diminish what he has accomplished. That said, the dreaded rookie wall is still out there.
Some of his work lately has suggested to me that he's found that wall already; I don't think he's performing at quite the level he was around Thanksgiving. I think he could use a game off here and there as he acclimates to the NHL schedule. Tired hockey players get hurt. I still think he's a total gem.
I gotta be honest at first I was upset that we traded 2 2nd rounders, not because Fox wasn’t worth it but because it was pretty clear he wanted to come here anyway so I felt we could get him for less. However it’s been very well worth it. Has show so much talent and production already.

Anybody else waiting for the Staal era to move so this kid can get the A?
I don't think Fox has hit "the wall" at all. If anything I think he's getting better. It maybe that he's playing in more difficult situations because Quinn trusts him more.
I'd like to see him play with DeAngelo full time.
That pair has crushed it when together.

I swear Fox hit Buch on this same exact stretch pass 3 times last night. Must be a set play, hard to see players without the puck on TV though. I assume Buch parks on the boards at blue line and swings to the middle at the right time.
DeAngelo is getting a ton of attention (rightfully so) but Fox himself has been crazy productive.
He went scoreless in his first 6 games but since then has put up 24 points in 36 games, that over the course of a full season comes out to about 55 pts.

This is a bad hockey team.
As I recall he was setting up quality chances in those games but they were being botched.

I know usage plays a role, but his 5on5 dangerous chances against and share of high danger chances are by far the best on the team.

How is it so different from Lindgren's?

Yeah despite playing a lot together Fox’s numbers go way up away from Lindgren and his go way down.
Probably some combo of usage and Fox just being the guy who carries that pairing, but I’d say More so the latter.

Fitzy's annual preseason poll, year 4. Most successful rookie season?
For the 4th consecutive year, we suck at predicting the best rookie season.
I will pump my own tires and point out that I was one of the five voted for Fox.

That’s insane for a rookie dman. Between Fox and DeAngelo we are going to be getting a boat load of offense from the back end for a very very long time.
