Did you not see the shot he took on the PP?Tell me how many points he got since April first?
Tell me the last time he had one good shot on net? Lol
Ya. He’s for sure in barn when Danault is getting shifts before him. And I don’t think he played badly. It’s a shame. I love this kid, but they just don’t seem to want to progress him.
KK seems to be in the doghouse. No ice in 3 on 3.

He hasnt been playing the end of games.Did he get injured? Why wasn't he playing at the end of the game?
And ArmiaDannault is faster, that's the reason why, I like the new strategy tbh, KK just doesn't have the speed to spin back and regroup over and over. The only slower players who get to play are Toffoli because he is the team's biggest scoring threat by far and Suzuki who is one of if not the better skill players with the puck on the team.
And Armia
And Staal
And Chiarot

Armia was screening Campbell on Caufield’s goalDid Armia or Staal play in OT? Chiarot but tbh we have no options
I don't know if we're hellbent on destroying it but man we've not done a good job.Just play him at C with CC. Hope Bouchard takes over as coach next year because it seems like this team is hell bent on destroying his development.
It should be your KK too.Your KK did not play in OT... Boooooo......
His shot needs a lot of work. He'll score a lot more points if he could wire it more often. Too often his shot just gets absorbed by the goalie.
Because saying second wave 2 TOI isn't the same as wave 1 TOI is the equivalent of saying it doesn't count. Wow.
Lets look at some other teams wave 2 shall we (May 3 lineup from dailyfaceoff.com). Because you need to compare apples to apples. So wave 2 to wave 2. Note: not stats for players moving between wave 1 and 2.
I tried to pick good, middle and bad teams on the PP...and I don't feel like doing all of them, but it seems getting 4-6 pts on wave 2 is normal production.[TBODY] [/TBODY]
Team wave 2 players Highest pts Florida Tippet, Weegar, Wennberg, Gusev, Montour 6 in 97:31 minutes (Wennberg TOI/G 1:50) Vegas Tuch, Karlsson, Smith, Pietrangelo, Marchessault 6 in 120:56 minutes (Marchessault TOI/G 2:28) (Tuch is next one in pts on wave 2 with 4 pts TOI/G 1:56) Devils Wood, Kuokkanen, Serverson, Butcher, Sharangovich 4 in 96:57 minutes (Severson TOI/G 1:54) Boston Coyle, Krejci, Smith, Hall, McAvoy 14 in 119:00 minutes (Krecji TOI/G 2:35) (next, McAvoy with 7 in 91:59 minutes and TOI/G of 2:00) Carolina (best PP in the league) Fast, Necas, Bean, Teravainen, Niederreiter 11 in 90:23 minutes (Necas, TOI/G 1:53 then it falls to 5 pts next) Colorado Kadri, Toews, Timmins, Nichushkins, Buravokosky 11 in 100:20 minutes (Buravokosky TOI/G 2:11, similar to Carolina for the drop off) Buffalo (they nave the nearest pp% to the Habs) Skinner, Thompspn, Bryson, Ristolainen, Ruotsalainen 5 in in 85:00 minutes (Ruotsalainen TOI/G: 1:53)
Sidenote: I hope Caufield is willing to share his shooting secrets with our guys. He's one of the best shooters in the world at 20. A side benefit to having elite players is how they can help other players improve.His shot needs a lot of work? What
EDIT : I thought I was in the Caufield thread
Even if he fails to become what he was projected, the nonsense going on in this thread is insufferable. It's normal to expect progression and more from him, but some of you are way out of line.
He's still a kid ffs, be patient. He still has a lot of time ahead of him to grow. Some take much longer to develop, you can't just freaking quit on him this early, he has way too much potential for that.
Frankly, the KK, Caufield, Suzuki and Romanov threads have all been embarassing reads this year. You'd think people are talking about underperforming veterans with multi million dollar contracts.
