Confirmed with Link: Canes sign Jack Roslovic - 1 year/2.8M

[Boom Boom Apathy]

6G/0A with a 25% SPCT suggests that we should definitely temper our expectations, but riding the wave is fun, until it isn't.

Necas SPCT is almost 30% by the way.

Stay hot, boys!

True, but throughout his career, Roslovic had 86G and 141A so he's assisted more than he's scored goals. So while the goal scoring will not sustain at this pace, neither will the lack of assists.

So… 4x$5m on Jan 1?

I don't think even Guentzel was this hot during his time with us.

Came here to say this. Some things are unlikely… this is more like inexplicable.

Congrats on his first assist as a Canes tonight. But 1 assist in 12 games, what a scrub…

2012-13 Jiri Tlusty. You play on a line with 2 guys who both draw a ton of defensive attention, if you know the right place to be, good things can happen.

2012-13 Jiri Tlusty. You play on a line with 2 guys who both draw a ton of defensive attention, if you know the right place to be, good things can happen.

And you can hit your spot when you get the opportunity. We have seen plenty of players over the years who know the right place to be, can get there, but cannot seem to finish the opportunity.

I don't know if it lasts, but Roslovic is getting his shot on net and often putting it on net in difficult spots to save. Between him and Gostisbehere, I feel like the % of shots missing the net should be down this year vs recent years.

Edit: and my feelings are incorrect. Went to MoneyPuck to look at "% of Unblocked Shot Attempts For that Miss Net" in all situations under RBA.

24-25: 34.4%
23-24: 34.22%
22-23: 32.5%
21-22: 29.59%
20-21: 28.33%
19-20: 27.44%

So the missed shots are just as high as last year so far, which was the highest % under RBA.

Career high in goals is 22. But his second best season is 12 (granted, 12 came in the 56 game post-COVID season and he only played 48 of those games).

But yeah, career year incoming already more than likely. The referendum on the Borg's offseason is going to be fun to watch unfold this year (though, when we lose in the second round, everyone will come out and say it was because we let Guentzel go).
