Player Discussion Shane Pinto (C) - PART 2

[BigRig4]

He’s potting 2 tonight just a heads up

 

[The Waffler]

Watched his recent interview this morning, he said there’s been a lot of positive reinforcement around him and people are giving him a lot of support during his adversity.


Maybe he needs more negativity in his life??

Bob Gainey had seasons of 8, 11, 12, 14 goals - maybe we are thinking of Pinto in the wrong mould?

 

[PlayOn]

Imagine someone said before the season that JBD would have more points than Pinto in less games played. Crazy stuff.

He’s getting better each game. Hopefully he can get going in time for this 70 year road trip.

Pinto's lack of offensive production is not exclusively on him. He's not put in a position to succeed given his skillset. It's a roster construction problem. He needs to play with someone creative that will put him situations to use his shot more.

Pinto is going to be a great player & has the skillset to most likely turn into a 2nd line centre.

Yeah agrees, he needs play driving wingers. Once Perron returns hopefully it will open up his game.

Best game of the season tonight.

He was engaged, skating well and carrying the puck. Also got in some good spots for shots.

Really surprised to see this drop off. Would not have guessed it.
Hope he gets some points soon.
His line looked much better last night.
Cousins finally looks as we expected.
