If Kupari could get his hands working, he's in pretty elite territory. He looks like he's getting better in all areas every game, I'd love to see him with KC or Ehlers. Linemates with speed and finishing ability.

He really seems like he could have a lot of untapped potential. Case in point last night when he blew past everyone and had a great scoring opportunity in alone.

and the opposing view


Some of that NHL Edge Data is pretty cool. I think Fleury has the highest speed burst on defense.

The one I was watching is the distance travelled and Morrissey is way up there, 5th in the NHL in ES distance travelled. De Melo in contrast is among the lowest for distance travelled per 60. Scheifele is up there too. Higher than I thought he would be be, but when you measure distance travelled if you defend a lot or break down defensively it seems like it would add to the skating out there. But also tells you who is doing the legwork on this team.

I'd like to see Kupari get a run a bit higher in the lineup, maybe with Perfetti and Ehlers. He's been really good and I think his ceiling is higher than a 4C.
