Player Discussion: Jake Christiansen hype (signs 2 year 975k aav extension)

He's drawn 11 penalties? That seems like a lot to me, they've only had 115 power plays all year, he's drawn 10%?

I would presume he hasn't drawn 11 penalties, those are percentile rankings you're looking at.

I like the way Christiansen plays the game. He’s a good two way player. More of a bottom pairing guy that can play on a 2nd pairing.

I think he’s a good partner for both Severson and Gudbranson. All 3 guys I’m all about keeping in the top 6 for the next few years. Whether Mateychuk starts playing with Werenski 5 on 5 all depends on who the team can add on defense. I’m waiting for the Fabbro bubble to burst similar to Nylander.

When I saw Bus had commented on the Christiansen thread, I wondered which player he was going to go after.

I think you might be waiting a while. The guy defends really well. Does a lot of little things well. You might have been a big fan of his if others hadn't got there first.

Good sign.
