Toffoli has 1 more even strength goal than Holtz.
What goalie has last 3 year of 50+ games in this organization in last 10 years?
They're in the window to compete for a championship now. Once guys start hitting 30, they're already heading downhill in their career arc. There's no more waiting, especially three years from now.
he's 33rd according to the filters he's talking about -- you can just look here: Player Season Totals - Natural Stat Trick (just have to sort it by goals/60)
Yes. This team just outplayed Carolina in Carolina without Hamilton and Siegenthaler. This is a team that's ready to win with a reliable goaltender.
You're in for a lot of disappointment if you think they're in a window to compete now.
Why are we limiting goal scoring to 5v5? The best players and goal scorers of all time clean up on the powerplay.
lol ready or not the window is now with these cheap contracts. So if the team isn’t ready now or even next year lol they might as well just tear it down.
I would say maybe? Luke and Nemec are the types of players that can transform a team, and we have both of them. Next year could be a big jump for one of them, if not both. Or it could be the year after, it’s hard to predict. But it certainly within the real of possibility that we have multiple 25+ minute studs very shortly.
all that and they are 2pts out of a playoff spot with this shit goaltending. Lol sure they aren’t ready to compete. I sure hope you bet the under their point total for the year then
As far as I can tell, the entire thing beyond the fact that insiders reporting the deal isn't dead is pure speculation driven by some Calgary mod and message board.
Because the majority of the game is played at 5 on 5 ? And is more of an indicative of a player
Because most of the game is played 5 on 5 and he plays on a second PP unit where somehow he is the best guy to carry the puck up the ice so they rarely get setup nor receives a pass.
You're in for a lot of disappointment if you think you're going to wait to start contending until your core starts approaching 30.
you asked what he's done -- he responded with that stat to show what Holtz has done 5v5 and now you're talking about his impacts on the powerplay when he's not on PP1 and they don't even use that often from where he'd score goals from on pp2 (they use him in the bumper and right half wall on PP2 a lot instead of the left half wall where he'd his one timer option)
This board in the past “we can’t sign o28 players too old”! Now the thinking is “we are too young we can’t be expected to compete yet”
Which is exactly how it went down with Meier - rumors include these outrageous pieces, people freak out despite it not passing the smell test, and then when the deal comes out and it's far more reasonable than the rumors claimed.
I don't hate Holtz, I just don't cherry pick numbers, limit game states, and come up with narrow statistical nuances for why he's better than he really is.
Not at even strength.
