You can infer that all you want, but no one criticizing Tkachuk wants the team to lose just so they can hop online and start berating him. That's some next-level nonsensical fantasy you're imagining.
Funny you should respond to my post as it certainly wasn't directed at you. But you should go back and read the last 20 or so pages in this thread as a few posters have an irrational hate for this team's captain. And my statement was responding to a one of those people who wrote something ridiculous.
Maybe we should start a Brady Tkachuk Legit Criticism thread. We should be able to dislike posts so we can vote them off the island if they don't qualify.
Ottawa is still easily the most forgiving market in Canada. It's really not even close.
I legitimately am wondering which games that person is watching...
Tangible stats is showing that he's putting more effort in his own end + just watching the games. Anyone arguing otherwise can go on spending their time imagining there's a section of the fanbase that wants him gone no matter what.
What tangible stats are showing he's putting in more effort?
What site are you using for stats on his last 10? I'm on Hockey Reference and can't isolate last 10 games.
I used 5v5 numbers from Natural Statrick, since PP isn't really relevant to defensive effort and he isn't on the PK.
call out brady when he is giving bad defensive effort and playing a bad team game
Sure, but high blocks doesn't mean that's what you are doing, it could mean you're hemmed in. Low blocks could mean they are shifting the play to the other side of the ice and away from you,
Thanks for providing the site, been playing around with it.
I think when you're dealing with a 10 or 20 game sample, it's best not to read anything into blocked shots, it's a relatively rare event that can get skewed pretty quick, it's also not indicative of any one thing, so again, it might mean what you're suggesting, or that might be confirmation bias and it's not at all what happened in those games.
