I don't know about weakest but he's certainly not a top pair guy. More of a support guy on the 2nd pair. Not good enough to carry a pair I don't think.

For me, I see a guy who has a good stick and has decent positioning. But issues of his are too much to me.

He's weak with the puck, very poor at passing and moving the puck. He also has a very awful shot. He is way too timid, and his decision making is usually extremely slow which gets him in trouble. His foot speed is awful. I don't see really much bright spots in his game.

Still want to pull Quick for having the stick kicked out of his hand. Jeez dude.

I didn't see it kicked out of his hand. I said it reactionary. He looked out of position, and he can get pretty unnerved when he plays, and when he gets like that, he leaks in more goals.

i don't mind him raising the question but he was screaming like it was so blatant and terrible

like that's the definition of ticky tack, if they called that goal back for THAT we'll never have a goal scored in the NHL again

That's why they have incidental contact as a call. It shouldn't have been a penalty but you can't hit even the stick of the goalie.

Stop talking out of your ass. No excuse for giving awful explanations. If you want to make me look stupid, then at least put effort to your answers instead of coming off like an incoherent child. You don't need to be a *****e.

Quick was in perfect position. Forbort a bad skater?

i can't in good conscience call a goal back for that.. i understand what you're saying but even incidentally, there needs to be more than the back of a skate kicking a stick outside the crease imo

lmao you think Forbort is a good skater? Tell me what he does well since obviously you're so smart. Why are you scared to give your two cents?
 
he uses his legs well to shield the puck and stuff but he's not fast, i think that sorta gives the impression that he's a poor skater

we saw in the 1st i think he really stuck his right leg forward to shield a loose puck at center so he could get his stick there to get it deep

Forbort's edge work is excellent -- he can turn in some pretty tight spaces...

He's also probably our best PK defender. His long reach is exceptional...

I think he has good edgework for his height, but he lacks acceleration and quickness. He's too slow.

That's true.

Regardless, I appreciate the people who actually said what they think he's good at.
