I don't disagree per say, but I do think Lalonde was coaching the creativity out of Seider. My hopes are that we are going to see more growth there with Mcllelan
I think both are dynamic but in different ways. Seider likes to skate with the puck, jump into odd man rushes, and is fantastic at keeping pucks in at the blueline. His passing is good but I wouldn't call it elite. Ed has the best outlet pass this team has seen since Lids retired. Look no further than the breakout to Kasper for the breakaway last night. He is great about finding seams both for passes and getting shots on net. He will jump into the play and rush up ice but I feel like he excels even more when it comes to fading down lone once the zone is established.
If Seider can ever get a true stay at home partner I think his offensive game will pop off a bit more, because it will allow him to rush/carry the puck. Eds offensive game will allow for more secondary points 5 on 5 and I think he'll eventually end up on the PP as well.
I wouldn't mind trying the two together on one unit because I feel like Ed plays more like a typical PPQB and Seider more like a rover. Right now Seider is in that QB role, but I don't think it necessarily suites him.
