Player Discussion Pavel Zacha

[Fingertools]

Bruins would be crazy to trade Zacha for anything less than a haul - tight with Pasta, plays both special teams, might be their best 2-way forward, good contract ... points? He has 2 less than Sam Bennett.

Zacha actually has a surprisingly respectable shooting percentage but that's on shots that hit the net.

So impressed with this guy

His 3 zone defensive game as a center has really blossomed

I like to watch something within the game - usually it’s an opposing player or how they set up on a power play and use personnel on it - however, been watching Zacha at the game and he’s really good

He is super responsible and he clearly picked up a lot from Bergeron & Krejci

I agree, I think he is greatly underrated around here, my only complaint is his shot accuracy, but he is a player.

What he's good at I don't see - that's my fault not his. I was the same with krejci. He'd have the quietest 2 and 3 point nights where I'd barely notice him impact the game.

I can't believe how snakebit he is around the goal for the number of chances he gets per game. Hopefully as his overall game matures he will find the back of the net with more consistency.
My issues with him, and more than half the team, is how often they miss the net when shooting. Just put the puck on net and anything can happen. Miss the net, and more times than not, the other team is moving the puck out of the zone.

Barely .5 PPG centering the best player in the NHL. Meh.
