Ya, so these are 2 very different scenarios as I thought. Not to mention, they are just 2 different players. Frost needs to play with skilled guys to maximize his potential. I’m not a Laughton fan boy at all, but he can be more effective playing up and down the lineup.

2015-16 wasn't his rookie year.
His rookie year was 14-15: Simmonds (248), Schenn (155), Raffl (84)

Regardless of Yandle's ES limitations, gotta say I'm still really looking forward to see what he can do for this powerplay here. Watched a lot of Florida's PP unit work last year and the guy s still a very high end distributor on the man-up. Best option we'll have had up high since the early days of Ghost.

Why hasn’t Kev asked Fletcher to sign that guy?

Is he right handed & does he hit?

He can be left handed, too. Were gonna have a spot on the left side open shortly.

Big game for Yandle coming up against his last team.
So far he's only playing 14:09 at ES and 2:11 on the PP, knocking Provy down to PP2.

That's exactly how he should be used, last year in FLA, 12:46 at ES, 4:26 on the PK.
His usage was probably up a little with Risto out.
Same with Braun, 15:47 ES, 2:00 PK.

He's been a very nice breath of fresh air on the PP. Though I'm not sure how much of that is him being a very good on the PP or its just been nice to not see Provy on PP1.

Hey guys, just wondering how Yandle has been so far?
Noticed he started off white hot with all his 5pts in first 3 games but now pointless for next 7 games.
Puck luck or not being used as much on PP?

Been pretty good for role. Solid #5 at this point in career.
He was taken off PP1 for no real reason and that is partially why no points. Should be there over Provy.

Appreciate it, thank you.
Unfortunately you guys may be forced to keep him in lineup until he passes the Ironman streak.
Without PP time, he is kinda useless but I'd be shocked if he didn't put up around 30ish pts if he plays 75+ games.
Kick the shit out of the Leafs tomorrow.

oh theres no question he signed with the intention of making his ironman record, no matter how worn down he gets, AV will play him every game
the results on the team be damned

After what happened with his brother, it's probably been really helpful for Hayes to have Yandle around.

Taking him off of PP1 is one of the more mystifying decisions by AV & Therrien in their bizarre and often brainless time here.

Still feel the same way so far?
Have to ask since I think he's been pretty good for what he is (and someone bumped the thread ::shrug:

Yandle is as expected. Lousy defensively, still capable of some nice passes and assists offensively. Expecting more from a $900k #6/PP specialist is unrealistic.

I expect Ghost to outscore Yandle and Risto on his own without the help of Hagg's 10-15 points. He's getting huge minutes for Arizona and our defense looks like it's going to be a non-factor in our offense this season thanks to AV's scheme.

It was actually working, so I'm not sure why he was removed.
Did the change happen after Ellis was injured?
