Is something wrong with Igor? Makes no sense to not play him

Probably hurt something when he fell on his ass trying to play out of net at the All -Star whatever you want to call it. Seriously though, knowing Shesty this might be a good move ....gives him a few more days to get his head in the game of real hockey. AND........
HALAK VS. CGY 10/6/1 .924 sv% 2.18 GAA
SHESTY VS. CGY 0/2 .851 sv% 5.50 GAA

He was clowning. Tried to shoot the puck at the opposing net. But yeah, he looked awkward while trying to hook a guy from scoring into his own net and falling

Honestly what a waste of time that was.

It doesn't grow women's hockey at all to basically treat them like make a wish kids. Igor let the goal in on purpose I just don't get the point of it

I dont think he has been that bad

I'd definitely get him away from Panarin

He has 1 point at ES that didn't involve Panarin at all.

It was a goal against CBJ, who just so happens to be 32nd out of 32 teams.

The bar has been set so low for this guy by some that we gets a handful of posts about how hes playing so well when he does nothing in a game other than skating in the right direction half of the time.

Who is he supposed to displace from the top 9? Maybe Goodrow (Vesey doesn't belong there either, but at least Vesey can defend) and he would be a terrible fit on that line anyway. Peep Trocheck's underlying numbers with and with out Kravtsov - He goes from being below average with him to basically a God with out him.

They need to find bodies to send Goodrow and Vesey to the 4th line, but they should find good bodies to do that. Kravtsov isn't that.

Kravtsov isn't offering much out there if he isn't scoring- and he hasn't been finishing his chances well enough for a player like that to continue justifying a place in the lineup.

Half these recent games I watch him flying the zone and abandoning his defensive positioning like he thinks he's Pavel Bure but he doesn't have the speed to do anything, nor is he particularly strong on his skates for a player that size.

He's a bust. He's never been good even at the AHL level,

I will say he has had opportunities to put the puck in the net, and has failed. Just not good enough

A Bit harsh...Vitaly has the frame now he needs to grow up physically and exert energy at maximum force to disrupt like baby jagr

A rusty Sam is going to be interesting tonight. Meanwhile, Bill Pidto will remain perfect like there was never a weeklong break.

Even if he had the games played, he would have had fewer iHDCF at ES than every single player in the top 9 aside from Panarin who doesn't shoot.

I don't know if I should be encouraged or alarmed that Kreider is basically doubling up Zibanejad and tripling up Panarin in that regard.

I understand why things are going the way they have for Kravtsov. But I also could absolutely see him going to Buffalo or Dallas or elsewhere and lighting it up with a fresh start and some looser reigns.
