Player Discussion Leo Carlsson

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
    • Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

    In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

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.

I do think this point needs to be stated more. The abysmal special teams really affects player stats. If the Ducks had league average special teams, they would probably be in a wild card spot and players like Carlsson would have more points. It's astonishing how bad the PP is and how much it impacts overall team success.

Also why it’s questionable to be comparing our young players to others based on point totals.

Just got a career high 30 points, on pace for 39.

As for the Famtilli debate, with CBJ scoring more, he is also their 4th leading scorer where Leo is not close to that IIRC. Although he's catching up now. But at times I find Leo's game as lackluster. My concern is growing that beefing up will not solve all problems for his game.
He should still be a good player tho.

We need to bring in an experienced goal scorer for him to play with. Better linemates and some more size will help him a lot
