Jason Robertson’s season so far…. (yikes)

[dalewood12]

Since being left off the 4-Nations US roster, Robo has 14 points in 12 games.

Took his omission personally, or the foot injury is healed?

Could be both . Guy has been a reliable scorer for several years , some good puck luck was due . But maybe it just took extra time to get up to speed due to surgery ( even if minor it’s likely an hindrance ) . Apart from Duchene most of the Dallas players are having off years so far . So maybe there is a theme/ reason .

Been a whole lot more like his normal self lately.

Powerplay still sucks but he's been producing again for a little while now

Same with Johnston

 

[Yasuo]

Up to 40 points in 45 games this season. Will probably end up arround ~80 points. He's a ppg winger his 100+ points year was probably an outlier imo

He appears to be back to his old self. Maybe having foot surgery and missing all of camp had a little something to do with the slow start. Ya think?

please refrain from making logical posts on this forum - he is terrible, hfboards posters said so!

 

[Mr. Met]

He usurped all of his brothers skill again it seems

I Owe You an Apology. I Wasn't Really Familiar With Your Game

Very happy to see Robo bounce back. Hopefully cracks the U.S. Olympics roster next season.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Finally dropped him from my fantasy team so I suspect he'll be back on the up and up.

Goal scorers are streaky, even the better ones. Imagine if he gets it going in the spring nobody will remember his start.

Yeah, that was predictable I guess... every move I've made this season has backfired lol
Goal scorers slump sometimes.

 

[Azzuri]

Hatty tonight.

37 points in his last 30 games.

Damn its like good players bounce back after starting the year injured or something.

Always was a ridiculous thread.

Good for him. And good for Dallas fans.

Bad for everyone else.

Not likely. Last time that happened he scored 100 points. He was just really bad to start the season. The whole line was honestly. And their PP was flat awful.

Besides, you could prob cut his foot off completely and not notice. The guy is a garbage skater even at his best. That's never been an important part of his game.

Lol, nobody said he's terrible. Save the drama. Nobody makes a thread wondering why a terrible player isn't scoring well. The fact that this thread even exists means these boards expect him to be good.

Good player. Will be interesting to see how many more 100+ seasons he’s got in him.

 

[Unspecified]

I chuckled when this threat came to fruition and people started talking about his contract and this and that. Bro's been over a PPG player in his career and a slow start people freak out. Most of us knew he would rebound and well that has happened.

With the way this team is constructed probably not many. No one on this team plays enough minutes to get that many points.

There were multiple main board threads shoveling dirt on him

Then he plays like he has for the rest of his career and it's crickets

It also helps that Benn/Heiskanen were replaced by Duchene/Harley on the PP

as the thread creator, at the time when I made this thread — he was entirely underproducing but now i’ll eat crow.

I don’t have any ill will against him or the stars, as a jackets fan.

You don't really need to eat crow dude. Don't get gaslit. He was garbage relative to normal for the first 2 months of the season, and it was more than fair to wonder why.

You certainly aren't the only one. He was playing so poorly it cost him a spot on the 4 nations roster. Before the season he would have been considered a lock. So people who evaluate talent professionally thought he looked off as well.

 

[Johnny Tomala]

Good that he is back to being himself after surgery. It's ridiculous that no one on the board is predicting him to make 2026 Olympic team.

 

[BonMorrison]

Yeah, ain't no way he's missing the Olympics.

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Do Leafs fans still think Nick is better?

When did this happen? I’ve never seen or heard a single leafs fan that has mentioned anything like this.
