Holy god you are obnoxious as hell. Damon Severson can’t play a lick of d? Did you get that out of the same magic 8-ball box of goofball facts as your “Laine is a great playmaker” and then (when that got shot down) “Laine is a great passer” hot takes?
You complaining about other people not supporting their arguments has to be one of the most pathetic examples of naked projection I’ve ever seen. You don’t offer any links, stats, or video to support any of your drivel, and you never have anything to say about the links, stats or video posted by anyone else.
I don’t need a chart or a link to confirm that he’s below average/mediocre in his own zone. If there was a chart or a link for looking lost, leaving your man wide open when looking the other way or making horrible pinches, he’d be on top of that list/pie chart or any other insignificant metric you like to you use other then your own two eyes/common sense. Stats are tools to mesure certain things but if you live and die by them, that’s when you’ll fool yourself. You can have them say whatever you want and that’s when it becomes "dangerous" when trying to make a point.
I admitted that I used the wrong term in regards to Laine when it came to him passing the puck and when I’m wrong, I’ll be the first one to admit.
To each his own I guess, but admitting you’re wrong at times doesn’t make you a weaker person. You can take this advice whichever way you want but it might do wonders for you instead of being agressive when your point isn’t shared by everyone.
Just so you know, I don’t hate the guy, I’ve said this numerous times... Severson is a good 2nd pairing dman with very solid puck skills but he’s below average when having to defend in his own zone. That’s my assessment of his game but you might think otherwise and that’s perfectly fine by me.
