Severson struggled with zone exits?

He led the defense in CF% in both the regular season and playoffs.

Haha well I stand to be corrected, good post. Was going straight from memory watching some games where he'd hold on the puck a second too long or fly a long pass for icing.

I believe it will be on the ESPN+ app. You need to have a paid subscription for it unfortunately if you don’t already.

I'm glad that Nemec is getting good feedback on what to improve while he goes back to the AHL and waits for a call-up.

You can tell it's just a matter of time before he is back up, and sticks for good.

Oh for sure, he’s going to come up and be here for a long time.

Brunette has been a head coach for what like 60 games for the Panthers when he was the interim coach ? Nashville is retooling , so Brunette is going to have to work some wonders to get them back into the playoffs. The Panthers made the Cup Final last year but got owned by Tampa the year prior with an even better roster. They were the President's Trophy winner and scored the most goals in the league too. The Lightning swept them and held the Panthers to only 3 goals in 4 games. That's probably a big reason Brunette wasn't brought back...Everyone was scratching their heads thinking Florida was stupid for brining in Maurice and trading for Tkachuk (myself included). I'm interested to see how Nashville does this year.

Look at some of the rosters Travis Green had to work with in Vancouver. Alot of their star players played fine under him but the overall roster was pretty weak. Their group of defensemen were amongst the bottom tier in the NHL. I think the only thing they had was some good goaltending with Markstrom and Demko. They aren't elite goalies though and without a high powered offense (which they didn't have) you can't really expect them to be that good. They had a nice run under Boudreau but we have seen that with alot of teams bringing in a new coach. He barely lasted there. I would blame their GM more so than the coaching staff. Regardless , Green will have a lighter load here and hopefully he can help make this team better. I just think that saying Brunette is better without having much experience as a head coach is a little premature.

Agreed, but it was just a thing I noticed. I do agree with you that Nashville is a very bad roster for Bruno's style, they'll need a few years to develop into the high flying attack that Florida had.

Perfect. Let him build muscle, dominate, play 25-30 minutes etc in the AHL. Ideally he forces his way into the NHL line up, rather than a forced injury replacement.

Those aren’t the same things as I understand it.

They're not the same. Events for and against... possession.

But if one was poor in zone exits, would you expect them to be a positive possession players? Virtually his entire career?

They're not the same but it would be silly to believe that there isn't a relationship reflected in those numbers.

The Pens beating the Canes would be such a gigantic thing in the Devils favor, it's not even funny.

Devils would have a better time of it against Pittsburgh than Carolina, tbh.

 

[guitarguyvic]

A final against Edmonton would scare me. Hard to envision McDavid finally getting to that last step only to come up short.

Seems like that has been the case for almost 20 years now

I believe I requested the Cliff Notes version or equally the equal equivalent for a YouTube video, please and thank you.
