Player Discussion Leo Carlsson

[SmokeyDuck]

I dont know why Cronin even needs to be mentioned in this. If he figured something(s) out with some of the best players in the world that was holding him back, thats really all that needs to be said.

Cronin and beeker want more well rounded guys, so the focus has been on weaknesses. Hes improved a lot in those areas, similar to Zegras. Then gets the added benefit of going and playing with the best of his countrymen and figured out some of the smaller things that possibly led to allowing his strengths to shine and getting over the hump.

People try to sneak that Cronin hate into every comment they can lol. That being said I think Carlsson is turning into a well rounded player, just not as fast as people want. He just got over the 40 percent mark on faceoffs, and is currently at a +3, playing on our top line against top players. Also he's only 20.

Leo has improved this season. His production is on par to what he did last year, with a couple of more goals to boot, but with much less ice time. Averaged just over 18 mins a game last year, this year he is just under 16 mins.

Putrid team PP has really hurt his production, like everyone else on this team. Actually has more ES points this year than last year at the same 55 game mark.
