I’d be down too having to play with ArmiaListening to him speak to the media this morning he didn't seem himself, sounded down a bit. He needs a confidence boost.

If we assume that 25s per faceoff lost stat then we are talking about Dach's faceoff skills this year costing us 2min of play out of a total of 240 minutes of game time, in other words 0.8% of the ice time.I don't agree, you lose 2/3 of your face offs you end up chasing the play for 25 seconds. Can't generate a whole lot when by the time you get the puck your shift is over. No #2 Center can be effective winning under 40% of his face offs.
How many goals do you think get scored off the draw...If we assume that 25s per faceoff lost stat then we are talking about Dach's faceoff skills this year costing us 2min of play out of a total of 240 minutes of game time, in other words 0.8% of the ice time.
It really just isn't that big a deal especially considering it's almost assuredly going to improve with time, on top of which a large percentage of faceoff wins aren't clean wins and so the win/loss is based on the wingers winning their battle.
My man Heineman deserves a center that wins face offs though. And Dach with Newhook the lefty to take them strong side leaves out Heineman. Kap 2C would be a bad look for the old Dacher at the wing I imagine.Still 0 concern
His 2 future wingers aren't even on his freaking line yet ffs
Armia is NOT the winger for him, MSL has that one wrong atm
The sooner 1 of Hein or Kap get placed next to him the better
We can easily get around that by just not sending the Dach line out for defensive zone draws. Like seriously a big part of Evans game is that we use him in those situations.How many goals do you think get scored off the draw...
and If you aren't getting any while giving them up?
Time lost because of a faceoff was brought up by the poster I quoted. If your puzzled by it being a factor then take it up with them.Time is not a factor nor is it why they keep track of face offs.
