Player Discussion Kirby Dach (Part 3): TabarDach Edition!

[FerrisRox]

you mean like 99% of fans and commentators? he played like ass and did not show signs he’d be back to nhl form ever, nothing crazy.

I can admit he’s doing much better although I’d move him at wing asap and get a real 2c.

It's ridiculous to suggest that 99 percent of professional commentators thought Dach was finished as an NHL contributor.

That's just plainly and simply not true.

 

[FerrisRox]

What are his strengths?

He's a big strong player who skates well, protects the puck utilizing his size well and I think he's got excellent vision with the puck and can be very creative as a playmaker.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

I think he plays his best with Gallagher, really simplifies the game for him, just throw it to the guy skating to the net

 

[OneSharpMarble]

I just noticed he won all 4 of his faceoffs, nice start, hopefully he can build on it and improve on the dot.

He only took 4 faceoffs!?

 

[sampollock]

find a centre and put 77 on the wing

Is this what Chicago saw?

...this is the ticket...Dach just isn't a Centre at the NHL level...management needs to realize this and start throwing around some decent offers for some of the good young C's out there...

He seems to be splitting them with Newhook, either intentionally or by getting thrown out, not sure which. Newhook had 5, Dach had 4.

But a lot has to do with they just didn't get put out in the defensive zone. The line was put out for 9 faceoffs, 5 were OZ faceoffs, and 3 were NZ faceoffs. When you are sheltering guys by not putting them out for DZ faceoffs the total number of faceoffs becomes fairly low.

 

[FerrisRox]

Newhook took five, Dach took four on that line.

 

[Goalfield13]

Newhook took five, Dach took four on that line.

Yikes,

 

[Colezuki]

Yikes,

They seem to do it based on handness,

Wouldn't read much into it, shifts from game to game

 

[DAChampion]

I obviously don't understand leg injuries, but I'm peeved at this decline.

"Suzuki, Caulfield, Dach" was how people including the GM described the offensive core.

 

[FerrisRox]

Yikes,

Why is that yikes?

They (surprisingly) went 7 for 10 in the dot. Their line had the best numbers in the dot all night.

 

[cave troll]

Moves on the board with a puck on his stick and with the speed of a turtle. Gets pushed a little bit. Takes a dive. Doesn't try get up. He goes on his knees and watches the PP going on. He realizes the puck is lost. Gets up and tries to skate back with snail's pace. Hughes scores the SHG.

Sign this bust for next 10 years.

 

[Galaxydoggystyle]

Get rid of this bum. Injured AGAIN!?!?!
