This dry spell is unbelievable. Would think he would get an assist here or there but nope.

Even if you play the right way and make the right plays it's still hard to produce in the NHL. Which makes the guys who make it look easy even more amazing

This 1000000% but it drives this point home even more when you get to see Panarin doing it. f*** he just makes magic happen every shift. Every once in a while i think that dude is skating off and getting lazy and then boom he intercepts a pass. Camera just wasnt showing the guy whos lane he was getting ready to take away.

I literally howled for 5 minutes straight when I saw it lmao and I’m laughing out loud every time I rewatch it. His helmet is half off his head and tilted, hes like standing upwards really straight almost leaning back he legit looks like a drunk guy going on ice for the first time and his face just has the dumbest and most angry expression I’ve ever seen :laugh::laugh::laugh: like when he first saw highlights of the CBJ/VGK game where he saw the Elvis celly he was so angry and took it so personal that planned from that moment that once he gets to play against him he’s going to do that celly against him. He was so determined he scored 20 seconds into the game because he was on a mission lmao

Exactly. It's just unreal, lol. It's too bad we're not making the playoffs, because that would have been perfect.

Except for no-puck-luck December Buchnevich has been a 0.75 ppg player with a very good effort all over the ice and one of the best scoring chance generation stats on the team. All while 24 years old and still getting better.

Trade him to give a 29 yo a 7*7 contract.

I love Buch, but it is kinda lame to mock the kid for no reason. Unless there is history i'm unaware of.

His legendary Skjei WJC taunt and him ribbing Kreider about the TSN trade board has me second guessing his helpless puppy dog eyes. Dude is a straight savage.

7X7, I'm with you. But his age to me is not a traditional indicator. This guys looks like he can keep playing for a long time. He's an unnatural physical specimen. He's a manimal.

3, even 4 more years because he’s “manimal” - maybe. At 33-34 even manimals slow down if not hitting a full stop.
 
You can see Buch has taken a step this season, in spite of the scoring slump he was in. Also, him Kreider and Zibanejad have formed a really close bond. You hope that if they trade Kreider that Buch isn't impacted too much. The human side of these things rarely get discussed.

Hoping that in the years to come that he can start being more of a leader. We have Panarin leading as an example, but there is obviously a Russian surge coming to NYC. If he is here, I'm hoping that he can help lead the younger guys that are coming up. Shesty is here already, Kravtsov and Rykov not too far behind. Buch didn't have those things when he came, so hopefully he can help these guys as they continue to transition to being in North America.

Buch has been better but he did have a lot of tough luck earlier through the middle of the season. Couple more go in and I think we are taking a different tune about him this year.

But it is what it is. I actually think the Caps would be wise to inquire about his services. I think he’s a good fit there.
