He's going to get hurt eventually. I think he needs to pick his spots better.

Most likely. All it takes is one shot going off his foot the wrong way. However he does seem to have good technique and doesn't expose the bad parts that often.

Is Kurz even trying anymore?

Since the Devils gaem, Sheng posts the following:
  • post-game quotes (with added personal flair)
  • Post-game article (on two different sites)
  • Meloche callup/reedy reassignment
  • Islanders update from the leauge
  • Day-off info, incl lines and quotes and updates
  • updates about Kane
  • Reposts game story while highlighting a different angle
Kurz posts the following:
  • Kane article he wrote with just the caption "NEW"
  • repost of that article with a caption thats the same as the headline
  • Kane update with a note from Sommer
  • RT of a Ratto article
  • More Kane updates
Kurz is posting no valuable beat writer information, and doesnt seem to even be trying to be the team's "insider" or whatever. I know he isn't on the roadtrip, but he could at least RT Sheng or use his contacts to get the same info.

I hate shitting on the guy because he truly is a good writer, but his coverage flat out stinks! Why can't he be more like Russo or Civian or Staple or Laz?

Ryan Merkley mentioned in article on analyzing Hextall's 1st round draft picks:

Re-Drafting Ron Hextall’s First Round Picks

This was proposing that Merkley might have been a better option than Jay O'brien at pick #19 in 2018. First time I recall seeing anyone outside of the Sharks promoting Merkley. Probably won't have been mentioned if he wasn't part of the young guns recall earlier in the season.

That shows me that DW doesn't really know what he has in the farm system, or chooses to discount it.
